Patent attributes
A computerized method for voice authentication of a customer in a self-service system is provided. A request for authentication of the customer is received and the customer is enrolled in the self-service system with a text-independent voice print. A passphrase from a plurality of passphrases to transmit to the customer is determined based on comparing each of the plurality of passphrases to a text-dependent or text-independent voice biometric model. The passphrase is transmitted to the customer, and when the customer responds, an audio stream of the passphrase is received. The customer is authenticated by comparing the audio stream of the passphrase against the text-independent voice print. If the customer is authenticated, then the audio stream of the passphrase and the topic of the passphrase may be stored.
