User input is received from an input/output device and the secret key is transmitted to the second device to unlock the second device in response to receiving the user input. Establishing the trusted relationship comprises using a key generated from a hardware key associated with the first device to authenticate the device key. The trusted relationship may be provided by Bluetooth and unlocking of the second device may depend on the proximity of the first device. User input from the first device may include biometrics (voice, fingerprint, etc) and the hardware key may be obtained from a secure element.
