  • Method for controlling a device requiring user-related permissions via a mobile terminal
    Patent number: 9648017
    Abstract: In a method for controlling a device requiring user-related permissions via a mobile terminal using a local data connection between the mobile terminal and the device to be controlled, the control commands requiring user-related permissions for the device to be controlled are generated by means of an interaction between the mobile device and an authentication server and/or a device management server and are transferred to the device to be controlled from the authentication and/or device management server via the mobile terminal. The control commands requiring user-related permissions for the device to be controlled are received by the mobile terminal and are thereafter transferred to the device to be controlled for the purpose of controlling the same and are not stored in the mobile terminal. The control commands received by the device to be controlled are not verified as to the permission of the user to utilize these control commands.
