Voice Biometrics as a Natural and Cost-Effective Method of Authentication

Overview In the past, voice biometrics took a back seat to other physical biometric methods of identification and verification, such as fingerprints, facial recognition and iris scans, but new algorithms and more robust computer processing power have increased accuracy rates exponentially, making voice biometrics a competitive threat to the more invasive, traditional methods of identification and verification. In addition, new legislation for higher levels of security in commerce make voice biometrics an attractive low-cost option for enterprises now required to ask for three levels of ID to prevent identity theft and fraud in commerce and homeland security. The voice biometric technology developed by CellMax Systems is paving the way for voice's inclusion by international standards organizations as a physical biometric parameter.

Can biometrics secure the public's data?

If an individual's biometric information is compromised or stolen, that individual could no longer use those biometrics to prove his or her identity. There are numerous biometrics technologies, including fingerprint recognition, iris scans, face...

ID cards are dead

But the big shift in the government's plans is the subtle sidelining of the physical biometric ID card itself. But employers will be forced to stump up for the physical hardware and associated IT costs of installing equipment to do the biometric...

Live Webcast: Telecoms 2.0 - Where is telecoms heading?

In this webcast, our panel of experts will review where we are with next generation telecoms in the UK, working through the concept of 'Telecoms 2.0': - Realising the potential of Next Generation Networks - why it isn't just about the technology? - What attributes should firms be looking for in their telco partner? - Is the relationship between telco provider and customer changing? - What things need to happen to make next generation services a reality? - You say you want the supplier to change. Do you want to change too? - What is Telecoms 2.0?
