Abstract
A method is used in validating association of client devices with authenticated clients. An authentication request for authenticating a client is received from a client device used by a client for establishing a session with a server. The client is authenticated by an authentication device. A token is created and provided to the client device. Identification information of the client device is gathered. The identification information identifies the client device. The identification information gathered from the client device is evaluated. Based on the evaluation, it is validated that the identification information corresponds to a client device associated with the authenticated client.
