Abstract

The disclosed embodiments allow an extremely simple and inexpensive way to interact with various Internet and mobile telecommunications related services, for example by a single button press, and with enhanced data security. A session login request includes a user identification and an identifier of a sensor apparatus associated with the user is received at a first network server from a user terminal. In response to successfully authenticating the user identification, an association request comprising the received identifier of the sensor apparatus is sent to a second network server. A reference identifier associated with the identifier of the sensor apparatus is generated at the second network server. The generated reference identifier mapped with the identifier of the sensor apparatus is stored at the second network server. Then, the generated reference identifier is sent to the first network server for storage.

Dependent claims

A method, comprising:

receiving, at a first network server from a user terminal, a session login request comprising a user identification and an identifier of a sensor apparatus associated with the user;
in response to successfully authenticating the received user identification, sending, from the first network server to a second network server, an association request comprising the received identifier of the sensor apparatus;
generating, at the second network server, a reference identifier associated with the received identifier of the sensor apparatus;
storing, at the second network server, the generated reference identifier mapped with the received identifier of the sensor apparatus;
sending, from the second network server to the first network server, an association response comprising the generated reference identifier;
and
storing, at the first network server, the received reference identifier mapped with the received and authenticated user identification,
wherein the sensor apparatus associated with the user is configured to send to the second network server an action request consisting of an indication of the identifier of the sensor apparatus over a wireless communication network in response to a trigger event sensed by a sensor device comprised in the sensor apparatus.

A system, comprising:

a sensor apparatus associated with a user and configured to send to a second network server an action request consisting of an indication of an identifier of the sensor apparatus over a wireless communication network in response to a trigger event sensed by a sensor device comprised in the sensor apparatus;
a first network server configured to receive, from a user terminal, a session login request comprising a user identification of the user and the identifier of the sensor apparatus associated with the user, and further configured to send, in response to successfully authenticating the received user identification, an association request comprising the received identifier of the sensor apparatus;
and
a second network server configured to receive, from the first network server, the association request comprising the identifier of the sensor apparatus, to generate a reference identifier associated with the received identifier of the sensor apparatus, to store the generated reference identifier mapped with the received identifier of the sensor apparatus, and to send to the first network server an association response comprising the generated reference identifier,
wherein the first network server is further configured to receive, from the second network server, the association response comprising the reference identifier, and to store the received reference identifier mapped with the received and authenticated user identification.
