Problems solved by technology

[0003] In the prior art, the client in the set-top box can obtain the EPG (Electronic Program Guide, Electronic Program Guide) authentication information ( For example, Token), the method of using EPG authentication information in the background of the business server to authenticate with the EPG server meets the authentication requirements of most set-top boxes; however, as set-top boxes have higher and higher security requirements, some browsers begin to support HTTP-Only Attribute, this attribute will restrict JS scripts to obtain browser cookies, resulting in failure to obtain EPG authentication information

Abstract

The present application provides a method and system for verifying the validity of a set-top box and an application client, and relates to the technical field of smart home. The method for verifying the validity of the set-top box of the present application includes that a client located in the set-top box sends a dedicated identifier request to an electronic program guide (EPG) server; the clientacquires a dedicated identifier from the EPG server; the client forwards the dedicated identifier, via the service system background of the client, to the EPG server for verification, wherein the service system background of the client sends valid identifier information to the client according to a verification success result from the EPG server; the client provides service for a user according to the valid identifier information from the service system background. By using the method, the service system does not need to read the verification information from the data stored on the local terminal of the user, thereby realizing the validity verification of the set-top box by the service system.

Description

technical field [0001] This application relates to the field of smart home technology, in particular to a method, system and application client for authenticating a set-top box. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of Internet TV, more and more new products and new services have entered IPTV set-top boxes; these products and services face common certification problems: how to verify the legitimacy of IPTV set-top boxes, and confirm that the requested data is sent from a legal set-top box? [0003] In the prior art, the client in the set-top box can obtain the EPG (Electronic Program Guide, Electronic Program Guide) authentication information ( For example, Token), the method of using EPG authentication information in the background of the business server to authenticate with the EPG server meets the authentication requirements of most set-top boxes; however, as set-top boxes have higher and higher security requirements, some browsers begin to support HTTP...
