Agnitio Brings Its Voice iD Technology to Dictao Customers

Dictao, a provider of software solutions for digital trust and security, has partnered with voice biometrics systems provider Agnitio to offer its Voice iD authentication solution. The partnership enriches the range of authentication factors already supported by Dictao, and now includes Voice iD with anti-spoofing technology created and patented by Agnitio.

Dictao's strategy is to support all authentication factors, including certificates, mobile phones, banking cards, and biometrics. Dictao's solution, powered by Agnitio's KIVOX product line, was developed for one of Dictao's largest banking clients to secure authorization and access to all e-services in a user-friendly manner. Customers can secure the use of their mobile devices, protect their privacy when authenticating themselves, and employ remote access for transacting via the Internet and their mobile devices.

"We believe in the power of Voice iD to advance the use of the spoken voice to create a reliable and user-friendly mobile banking experience. By combining Agnitio's Voice iD with anti-spoofing technology with the multitude of authentication factors we already support, our enterprise clients can securely and rapidly integrate Voice iD into their unique solution, without changing the digital applications and services already in place, said Bertrand Moussel, executive vice president of alliances and international at Dictao, in a statement.

Agnitio offers a comprehensive set of anti-spoofing capabilities. Based on proprietary technology backed by four patents, Agnitio's KIVOX Voice iD products detect up to 97 percent of spoofing attacks using acoustic characteristics of the access recording. The unique traces in the audio from a spoofing attack can be detected by Agnitio's algorithms during the verification process and, if spoofing is detected, the caller can be blocked or re-directed.

"Agnitio's sophisticated patented algorithms provide the highest level of speaker verification accuracy and anti-spoofing effectiveness on the market, which is of paramount importance to all of Dictao's enterprise clients. We are delighted to partner with Dictao, who understands very well the needs of our financial services, commercial, and government clients," said Agnitio executive vice president of sales and marketing, Philippe Vinci, in a statement.
