Abstract:
1. A non-transitory machine-readable medium comprising instructions stored therein, the instructions executable by one or more processors to perform a method for sharing source data located behind a firewall, the method comprising: receiving, at a first device, a first token associated with the source data located behind a firewall, from a second device located within five feet of the first device, using a near proximity communication (NPC) protocol, which supports generation of the first token based on detection of presence of the first device within five feet of the second device, wherein the first token is an encoded, non-public, first token for near proximity communication and is based on the source data for sharing, wherein the receipt of the first token is based on the detection; decoding the first token; communicating based on a first communication protocol to a third device to download the source data using the decoded first token, wherein the first device is an NPC-enabled device, having an NPC interface, to allow presence of the first device to be detected by the second device when the first device is within five feet of the second device, wherein the second device is an NPC-enabled device, wherein the NPC protocol supports a data transfer rate that is not greater than a data transfer rate supported by the first communication protocol, wherein the NPC protocol is a wireless communication protocol that supports automatic connection between at least two devices located within five feet.
