Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer-readable media for minimizing the risk of fraudulent access to call center resources. The invention described herein provides a method of minimizing fraudulent access to call center resources, with the method including at least the following. One or more authenticated biometric samples are associated with at least one person. The person then submits at least one test biometric sample during a login process to obtain authorization to access to call center resources, for example, to process telephone calls or to receive training. This test biometric sample is captured and the differences between the test biometric sample and the one or more authenticated biometric samples is quantified. Depending on the degree of difference between the at least one authenticated biometric sample and the test biometric sample, the person's request for authorization to access call center resources is dispositioned.

Abstract: Methods, apparatus, scripts, and computer readable media for facilitating secure capture of sensitive data during a voice-based transaction with a caller conducted over a telecommunications network. In an illustrative embodiment, the method comprises executing a script controlling a flow for the voice-based transaction, during which transaction at least one of sensitive and non-sensitive data may be obtained. The caller is transferred to an automated system in real time in response to the script to capture sensitive data from the caller and to store the sensitive data in a transaction record. The caller is transferred to a live operator in real time in response to the script to capture non-sensitive data from the caller and to store the non-sensitive data in the transaction record. Apparatus, scripts, and computer readable media for realizing the above method and other embodiments of the same are also provided.

Abstract: Method, apparatus, and computer-readable media for minimizing the risk of fraudulent receipt of telephone calls. The invention described herein provides a method of minimizing fraudulent receipt of telephone calls, with the method including at least the following. One or more authenticated voice samples are associated with at least one person. The person then submits at least one test voice sample during a login process to obtain authorization to receive telephone calls. This test voice samples is captured and the differences between the test voice sample and the one or more authenticated voice samples is quantified. Depending on the degree difference between the at least one authenticated voice sample and the test voice sample, the person's request for authorization to receive telephone calls or training is dispositioned. Apparatus and computer-readable media to realize the above function are also provided herein.
