Subscription Sharing among a Group of Endpoints having Memory Devices Secured for Reliable Identity Validation

Abstract:

A server system configured to allow a group of endpoints to share a subscription. For example, data can be stored to associate the endpoint group with at least one subscriber identifier. After receiving a validation request containing identity data generated by a memory device configured in an endpoint in the group, the server system can validate the identity data based at least in part on a secret of the memory device. In response to a determination that the identity data is valid, the system can determine that the subscriber identifier is not currently assigned to any endpoint in the group and thus assign, based on the data associating the endpoint group with the subscriber identifier, the subscriber identifier to the endpoint to cause a service offered to an account represented by the subscriber identifier to be provided to the endpoint.
