A method for re-indexing in a base station a first mobile terminal to be associated with a new predefined routing configuration, the base station listing a first set of identifiers of mobile terminals and a set of context identifiers, each context identifier associated with an allocation of lines corresponding to a routing configuration for routing incoming and outgoing communications, the method including detecting a request to change a terminal's identifier, sent by the first terminal, the request including information corresponding to a context identifier listed in the base station; checking that a new terminal identifier associated with the context identifier is available, the context identifier being determined by analyzing the context information of the request; allocating a new terminal identifier to the first terminal by sending the new terminal identifier to the first terminal and changing the indexing of the new identifier of the terminal stored in the base station.

An intercom network for real-time audio communication between users has a stationary element to which the users are connected, a mobile terminal that comprises an audio input and that can transmit audio signals wirelessly to the stationary element or to another user, and a device in the stationary element for user management, that administers the users connected to the stationary element, and that carries out an authorization check for logging the mobile terminal onto the stationary element. An NFC element is provided in the device on the stationary element, and an NFC counter-element is provided on the mobile terminal that can transmit authorization information to the NFC element when the mobile terminal approaches the stationary element.

An intercom network (10) for real-time audio communication between users (11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e, 11f, 15a, 15b), amongst other things, is represented and described, comprising at least one stationary element (12a, 12b), as a base (13), to which the users (11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e, 11f) are connected, and at least one mobile terminal (15a, 15b), such as a belt pack (16) or a mobile microphone (17) that comprises an audio input (18a, 18b), wherein audio signals can be transmitted wirelessly with the mobile terminal within the DECT frequency range to the stationary element or to another stationary user, wherein the stationary element comprises a device (19) for user management that administers the users (11a, 11b, 11c, 11d, 11e, 11f, 15a, 15b) connected to the stationary element (12a, 12b), and wherein an authorization check is carried out by the device for the logging-on of the mobile terminal to the stationary element, wherein the device (19) comprises an NFC element (20a) arranged on the stationary element (12a), and wherein an NFC counter-element (21a, 21b) is arranged on the mobile terminal (15a, 15b), wherein authorization information can be transmitted by the NFC counter-element to the NFC element when the mobile terminal approaches the stationary element.

A system may be provided and may include a trusted DECT device; and a DECT base station; wherein the trusted DECT device is arranged to send, to the DECT base station, registration allowable DECT device credentials; wherein the DECT base station is arranged to: receive from a requesting DECT device a request for registration of the requesting DECT device to the DECT base station; wherein the request comprises requesting DECT device credentials; register the requesting DECT device to the DECT base station if the requesting DECT device credentials match the registration allowable DECT device credentials; and prevent a registration of the requesting DECT device to the DECT base station if the requesting DECT device credentials differ from the registration allowable DECT device credentials.

A backup account recovery authentication of last resort using social authentication is described. The account holder requests trustees who have been previously identified to obtain an account recovery code. The account recovery system sends a communication to the trustee for information to verify the trustee as one of the previously identified trustees. The account recovery system then may transmit a link and code with instructions for the trustee to return the link. The account recovery system then transmits a situational query to the trustee to provide additional security. Finally, if all the communications have been completed for the required level of security, the account recovery code is transmitted to the trustee. The trustee sends the account recovery code to the account holder for access to an account.
