Abstract
A method and system for authenticating requests for accessing network resources are described. Network address information may be associated with a network resource user. An authenticator may maintain the associated network address information. The authenticator may receive, from a requesting party, a request to authenticate the network resource user, where the request may include a network address identifier. The network resource user may be authenticated based on the network address information and the network address identifier. The authentication determination may be forwarded to the requesting party for purposes of controlling access to a network resource of a network resource provider in response to an access request made by the network resource user.
