Abstract
A method for authenticating a user includes connecting to a server from a user device, loading from the server to the user device data including executable data, detecting by the user device, while executing the executable data, whether an identifier relating to a short range communication device exists in a vicinity of the user device, sending from the user device to the server a user identifier accompanied with the detected short range communication device identifier, verifying by the server for the identified user whether a detected short range communication device identifier matches a predetermined part of a reference short range communication device identifier. Access is granted from the server only if the detected short range communication device identifier matches the predetermined part of the reference short range communication device identifier.
