The DOCSIS portion of a composite subscriber device is coupled to a video device. The DOCSIS portion ranges and obtain a symmetric session key generated and encrypted using the DOCSIS portion's private key, and broadcast from a central network device over a data channel. The session key is decrypted using the device's DOCSIS private key. The DOCSIS portion forwards the session key to a video control processor, which uses the session key to decrypt encrypted video control messages received by the video portion of the composite device over a video channle. The decrypted video control messages are used to process video content signals received at the composite subscriber device over the video channel.
