CONNECTION AUTHENTICATION

摘要

One or more embodiments of techniques or systems for connection authentication are provided herein. A mobile device or device may act as an initiator of a connection with a vehicle, which acts as a target. A user utilizing the device may initiate a connection request by launching an application or browser on the device. The device transmits the connection request to the vehicle. The vehicle may receive the connection request and respond with a device identifier (ID) request. A user of the device may select whether or not to continue. If the user continues, the device transmits a device ID of the device to the vehicle. An interface component may render the connection request for an occupant of the vehicle, such as the driver, and await a response. In this way, a driver of a vehicle may act as a gatekeeper for connections.

主权项

1. A method for connection authentication, comprising:
receiving a connection request from a device acting as an initiator for a connection; transmitting a device identifier request in response to the connection request; receiving a device identifier associated with the device in response to the device identifier request; and rendering the connection request for an occupant of a vehicle based on the device identifier of the device, wherein the vehicle acts as a target for the device initiating the connection, wherein the receiving the connection request, the transmitting, the receiving the device identifier, or the rendering is implemented via a processing unit.
