Abstract
Systems, computer-implemented methods, and tangible computer-readable media are provided for voice authentication. The method includes receiving, on a mobile device, a speech sample from a user as part of a request for a restricted-access resource separate from the mobile device. When the user has previously established an identity with the mobile device, the method includes transmitting the speech sample along with the request to an authentication server which compares the speech sample to a previously established speech profile associated with the user and providing access to the restricted-access resource based on a response to the request from the authentication server if the speech sample from the user matches the speech profile on the authentication server with a minimum certainty threshold.
