Abstract
A method for authenticating a terminal device in a communication network, wherein a communication connection is established between the terminal device and a network access node of the communication network; upon a sensory stimulation of the terminal device, the terminal device performs a recording of sensor data; the terminal device transmits the sensor data via the communication connection to the network access node; and the terminal device is authenticated by the network access node as a function of a confirmation or rejection of a playback of the sensor data.
