A system that incorporates the subject disclosure may perform, for example, operations including obtaining a request from a mobile device to allow user access to restricted content of a separate device. The process further includes forwarding a token to the separate device by way of a second wireless network, to obtain a separate device token, and forwarding the token to the first device by way of the first network to obtain a mobile device token, wherein the mobile device token is forwarded to the separate device by way of a third network. A confirmation that the token was obtained at the separate device is based on the result of the comparison indicating a match between the mobile device token and the separate device token. Access to the restricted content of the separate device is authorized based on to the confirmation. Other embodiments are disclosed.
