SYSTEM AND METHOD OF MANAGING SECURITY BETWEEN A PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE AND A PORTABLE COMPUTING DEVICE DOCKING STATION
First Claim
1. A method of managing portable communication device (PCD) and PCD docking station security, the method comprising:
- determining whether a PCD is mated with a PCD docking station when the PCD is docked with the PCD docking station;
initiating a back-end security call when the PCD is not mated with the PCD docking station;
querying a user for a primary access code; and
determining whether the primary access code is correct.

Abstract
A method of managing portable communication device (PCD) and PCD docking station security is disclosed and may include determining whether a PCD is mated with a PCD docking station when the PCD is docked with the PCD docking station, initiating a back-end security call when the PCD is not mated with the PCD docking station, querying a user for a primary access code, and determining whether the primary access code is correct. The method may also include terminating the back-end security call when the access code is correct and providing limiting access to PCD content items and applications via the PCD docking station.
