  • Publication number: 20230308437
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating voice authentication of a user in connection with a network transaction. One example method includes capturing, by a voice interactive device, a voice command from a user to initiate a transaction with a third party and determining content of the voice command. The method then includes authenticating the user, based on the captured voice command and a voice biometric reference associated with an identifier for at least one of the user and/or the voice interactive device, and transmitting, by the voice interactive device, a purchase request for the transaction consistent with the content of the voice command to the third party. The purchase request includes an indication of biometric authentication for the user, whereby the third party is permitted to initiate an enhanced authentication of the user in connection with the transaction.

  • Patent number: 11706213
    Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for facilitating voice authentication of a user in connection with a network transaction. One exemplary method includes receiving an authentication request for a transaction, initiated at a voice interactive device, from a merchant plug-in (MPI) associated with a merchant involved in the transaction, where the authentication request includes a pre-authentication indicator based on voice authentication of a user by the voice interactive device or by a voice authentication service. The method also includes generating a risk score for the transaction based at least in part on the pre-authentication indicator, transmitting the risk score with the authentication request for the transaction to an access controller server (ACS) associated with an issuer of an account to which the transaction is directed, and returning a result response to the MPI where the result response indicates permission to proceed in the transaction based on authentication of the user.

  • Publication number: 20190392440
    Abstract: An authentication platform for authenticating an online user is provided. The authentication platform includes a memory device including an authentication profile and at least one processor coupled to the memory device. The at least one processor is programmed to receive an authentication request message for a transaction. The authentication request message includes authentication data. The at least one processor is also programmed to extract the authentication data from the authentication request message and determine if the ACS is available to process the transaction. If the ACS is unavailable, the at least one processor is further programmed to generate, based at least in part on the extracted authentication data, risk-based authentication (RBA) result data including a risk score and transmit an authentication response message based on the RBA result data.
