Abstract

Methods and systems are provided for user authentication in communication systems. An identification token may be generated in response to an action in a user terminal, with the action in the user terminal requiring an action in a remote server, with generating the identification token being triggered in response to a request from the user terminal that necessitates performing the action in the remote server, and with the identification token associated with a time stamp indicating when a network identifier is used by the user terminal to send the request. User authentication information associated with one or both of the network identifier and the time stamp may be obtained, the user authentication information may be sent to one or both of the user terminal and the remote server for authenticating the user in the communication network.
