Claim Text:
1. A method of user access authentication, the method comprising: receiving a first authentication request at an identity server from a second network access point, based on a user device access request for accessing a secure data network through a first network access point; obtaining from the first authentication request a first network access point identity of the first network access point and a second network access point identity of the second network access point; determining at the identity server whether to grant a user device access to the secure data network by comparing a user identity and the first network access point identity to a stored plurality of user identities and corresponding validated pairs of network access point identities; and granting access to the secure data network when the user identity and the first network access point identity obtained match with one of the stored plurality of user identities and corresponding validated pairs of network access point identities.
