The potential for change offered by artificial intelligence (AI) is significantly influencing the way fraud detection is carried out today. The integration of voice authentication with AI stands out among the many applications because it fortifies the defense against fraud. The confluence of AI and voice authentication, along with its advantages, have been examined in this blog.

Voice Authentication: A Game-Changer in Security

How Voice Authentication Works

Individuals’ distinctive vocal traits are used for voice authentication, a sort of biometric authentication. Voice patterns are distinctive, much like fingerprints are. For analysis, these patterns—which include elements like pitch, tone, and speech rate—are transformed into digital representations.

Advantages of Voice Biometrics

  1. Voice biometrics provides a secure and frictionless user experience.
  2. This is also one of the fastest authentication methods available.
  3. A voiceprint cannot be easily copied like passwords or PINs. Hence, security is enhanced.
  4. Voice biometrics is highly accurate in detecting attempts of impersonation.
  5. Users no longer need to memorize complicated passwords, which improves security and streamlines the login process. So, authentication takes minimal user effort.

Combining AI and Voice Authentication

Fraud Detection and Monitoring

AI helps  in detecting suspicious activities, such as voice impersonation, voice mismatches, synthetic attack, bruteforce attack and more. This can help trigger immediate alerts for further investigation. Fraud detection is made much easier this way. 

Pattern Recognition and Anomaly Detection

AI programs are excellent at spotting subtle patterns in voice data. They can differentiate between honest users and con artists by listening for irregularities such as changes in voice tone or unnatural pauses.

Continuous Learning and Adaptation

As speech patterns and fraud techniques change, AI systems continuously learn from fresh voice samples. This adaptability makes sure that the system keeps working even when fraudsters use increasingly advanced techniques.

Voice Authentication at Gnani.ai

Armour365 is the omnichannel voice biometrics module in Gnani.ai’s unified CX platform. It authenticates users using less than 5 seconds of audio and within 1 second. This has reduced call-handling times by over 60 seconds. Hence, customer issues are addressed faster. Gnani.ai’s in-house ASR and TTS technologies adds to the authentication speed. No passwords or PINs are required to authenticate users using Armour365. It is language agnostic and detects and deflects attempts of identity theft by TTS, replay attack, synthetic attack, mimicry, bots, and more. Armour365 can authenticate users both actively and passively in less than 1 second.
