Abstract
A system and method for enabling access of content in a home network are provided. The method includes receiving a content on a source device. Further, the method includes setting content sharing preferences by the source device. The content sharing preferences indicate whether a device is authorized to access the content. The method includes encrypting the content on the source device. Further, the method includes storing the encrypted content in a shared storage device. The method includes receiving a request from a device for decryption of the encrypted content. Further, the method includes decrypting the content by the source device based on the content sharing preferences. Furthermore, the method includes providing the decrypted content to the device, thereby enabling access of the content to the device.
