Abstract: Method and system for a service server to provide a service to a client. The client (C) sets up a secure session to an authentication server (CAP) and sends its identifier and a service request stating the required service. The authentication server verifies the client identifier and sends the service request to a service authorization server (DAP). The authorization server checks whether the required service may be provided and sends the authorized service request to the authentication server. The authentication server generates a token, associated with the authorized service request. Via the secure session, the authentication server sends the address of the relevant service server and the token. The client sends the token to the service server, which then sends the token to the authentication server. The authentication server fetches the service request associated with the token and forwards it to the service server, after which the service server gives the client the required service.

Abstract: Method and system for distribution of products via a transmission network which connects a customer processor, one or more provision processors and a transaction processor. The customer selects, via his customer processor, a product at a provision processor or at the transaction processor which is provided with product information of all connected provision processors. The customer orders the selected product, after which the provision processor sends the selected product and the billing information to the transaction processor. The transaction processor subsequently establishes a connection with the customer processor and sends the product received from the provision processor to the customer processor. The billing information is sent to a collection address.
