Abstract

Some embodiments set forth systems and methods enabling a first network to use the resources of various second networks in order to localize delivery of the first network content from the various second networks in a secure manner. Some embodiments provide a token-based authentication scheme to ensure that any configured content access restrictions are effectuated at the first network and any of the second networks providing localized content delivery for the first network. The scheme involves a two phase user authentication, wherein the user is separately authenticated at the first network and the redirected to second network using either the same or different set of access restrictions. The first network exchanges a first encryption key with content providers for encrypting/decrypting the first access restriction and a second encryption key with a second network for encrypting/decrypting the second access restriction.
