The invention relates to a telecommunication method, and relating system thereto, for authenticating a user (16) with respect to a computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c), the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) comprising an authentication system (14) including a user interface (18) and an interface (20) for connecting the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) to a digital, cellular telecommunication network (22, 22a, 22b), the authentication being carried out by way of a mobile telecommunication terminal (24), the mobile telecommunication terminal (24) comprising an interface (26) for the communication network (22, 22a, 22b), the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) comprising a memory (36) in which a communication address for the telecommunication terminal (24) is stored, comprises the following steps:
- the user (16) identifies himself or herself with respect to the authentication system (14) of the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) by entering login information via the user interface (18);
- after successful identification of the user (16) on the authentication system (14), the authentication system (14) accesses the communication address stored in the memory (36) and transmits an activation request via the communication network (22, 22a, 22b) to the mobile telecommunication terminal (24);
- the mobile telecommunication terminal (24) automatically ascertains at least one piece of information that is required for activating the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) for the user (16) by way of a program (32) that is stored on the mobile telecommunication terminal (24) and/or by way of an interface of the mobile telecommunication terminal (24);
- the mobile telecommunication terminal (24) automatically checks whether the ascertained information meets at least one predefined criterion that is stored on the mobile telecommunication terminal (24);
- the mobile telecommunication terminal (24) transmits activation information for the user (16) on the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c) via the communication network (22, 22a, 22b) to the authentication system (14) if the ascertained information meets the stored criterion;
- upon receipt of the activation information, the authentication system (14) issues an authentication signal indicating the authentication of the user (16) to the computer system (12, 12a, 12b, 12c). |
