Abstract: A method and a system for providing an anonymous access to a service within a network is disclosed. Thereby a user entity sends a user request comprising access-service information and requested service information to an anonymous-access service. The anonymous-access service verifies whether the access-service information are valid. In the event that the access-service information are valid, the anonymous-access service assigns the access-service information to subscription information and connects to the service by sending a verified request comprising the subscription information and the requested service information. The anonymous-access service receives response-service information from the service and forwards it to the user entity. By doing so, the user's instances of access to the services are not linkable to each other nor are they linkable to the user's real identity.
