Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for user authentication in communication systems. An identification token may be generated in response to a user terminal loading a web page from a web server, with the identification token associated with a time stamp indicating when a network address is used by the user terminal, and with generating the identification token being triggered in response to a request from the user terminal to load the web page. User authentication information, associated with the network address and the time stamp, may be obtained and sent to one or both of the user terminal and the web server for authenticating the user of the communication network. Triggering the generating of the identification token may include instructing the user terminal to request the identification token and/or identifying the network address in response to the request from the user terminal to load the web page.
