SpeakNSet™ Password Reset Technical Specifications, Benefits and Applications

Is Your Call Center Overwhelmed with requests for New Passwords? Are your customer service representatives spending more time resetting passwords than attending to more important tasks, are operational costs of helpdesks skyrocketing? Are customers and employees are suffering lengthy wait times?

Password management requests consume approximately 30% of all calls to enterprise helpdesks according to Gartner Group. According to industry analysts Gartner Group resetting passwords for users calling into enterprise helpdesks are estimated to be between US $100-$300 per year, per person.

Organizations no longer have to clog their Help Desk lines when passwords are lost or forgotten, nor do users have to go through lengthy identification processes just to get another password issued. THC Technologies CorpÔÇÖs VoiceVantage™ technologies deliver automated self-service, voice identity confirmation with SpeakNSet™ Password Reset.

SpeakNSet™ Password Reset is not only convenient and hassle-free; it significantly reduces call center costs and enables enterprises to leverage its investments in existing technologies.

How It Works

User Enrollment

  • First-time users are prompted to state a unique identifier such as their name or Employee ID number
  • Integrated speech recognition can access the claimed user profile database and prompt the user to respond to a series of automated questions such as; date of birth, SS# or motherÔÇÖs maiden name
  • Following successful ÔÇ£at bestÔÇÖ verification, the user is permitted access to the voiceprint enrollment process

Voiceprint Authentication

  • The user will be prompted to provide a voice sampling by responding to audio prompts
  • Users will confirm successful enrollment via biometric verification utilizing the voiceprint authentication technology

Temporary Password Is Created

  • The SpeakNSet™ module creates a temporary password based upon the parameters configured by the backend system
  • The temporary password is posted to the backend system

Temporary Password Is Issued

  • The new password is then recited to the user

By creating technology that understands the complexities of the human voice, we have revolutionized the way information resources are accessed, protected, and stored.
