Power change with your voice

Change can be scary. Changing one’s habits, routines, behaviors, and Past-Words (passwords). People are often creatures of habit both in our personal and professional lives. We make the same drives, drink the same coffee, and use the same Past-Words.

 These routines are comfortable and convenient, but they do not help keep our digital accounts secure!

See Beyond Password Security

Remember the first time you heard a dial-up tone when connecting to AOL and Myspace, or pressing buttons on a Blackberry with a stylist (yes, that’s how some of the first cell phones worked)? Let’s not even think about faxes and pagers or having to wait a full 24 hours to see your photos.

The digital world has rapidly evolved in the last decade. Without these changes and innovations, we would still be waiting for our camera rolls to be developed. I get chills just thinking about it!

Changing technology and our comfortable habits can be scary and it takes effort. Ultimately, the changes we make now, will only increase our comfort, security, and reliability later.

Today, I am talking about the painful habit of trying to remember weak passwords! Yes – chills again!

Past-Words need to be left in the past, with dial-up, pagers, and your father’s beloved, inoperable lawn mower that you’ve tried to get rid of hundreds of times.

Start Using Voice Biometrics

Voice Biometrics is a security term made to identify vocal points that cannot be duplicated, recorded, or re-created by another. ValidSoft has created the solution to put Past-Words in the Past! With Voice Biometrics you don’t have to come up with more unique passwords or remember special characters.

You just need to follow 3 easy steps:

  1. Get a prompt on your device.
  2. Say the selected numbers.
  3. You are securely logged into your session!

No More Password Expiration Policies

Have you walked into the office after a nice vacation, and they reset all of your Past-Words AGAIN as a security measure? Now you need to remember your user’s password, create a new “good password” that meets security requirements, and remember that one too!

That’s not all – oops while you were on vacation, you took too long to reset everything. Time to call your IT team to help you with password changes…again. Let’s face it, they don’t want to reset ANOTHER Past-Word any more than you do!

Now let’s take that same scenario. You walk in from a nice vacation, sit at your desk, your computer prompts you to speak, and that’s it! You’re logged onto your work computer.

No walk of shame to IT, no 30-minute hold times. You will no longer have to remember dozens of new passwords on your phone or have two-factor authentication when you can’t find your mobile device.

Your IT team will thank you!

Prevent Cyber Attacks

ValidSoft’s technology changes how we log into our lives, and not only is the convenience clear, but the security level is bar none! Voice Biometrics is one of the most secure means to log in to devices, facilities, or apps. This helps prevent hackers and cybercriminals from stealing sensitive information and personal data.

With Voice Biometrics, every number and vocal tone is so unique to every individual. This security practice allows hundreds of data points from each voice tone.

Depending on the level of security desired by a company or individual, ValidSoft can increase the number of digits needed to log in. Thus increasing the amount of data points needed to verify one’s voice.

Practice Strong Cybersecurity Habits

ValidSoft’s technology is not only more secure than any strong passwords, but it virtually eliminates human error! Which is one of the greatest vulnerabilities of any security system. Common examples of human error include, leaving your computer logged on, writing Past-Words down, not having multiple layers of security, and more!

Human error accounts for so much theft, malware, and ransomware.

Take into consideration the time and cost for your IT team to fix or secure these errors. Combine that with the time it takes to constantly update, refresh, and cycle through Past-Words – all these extra resources for data security are unnecessary expenses.

With ValidSoft Voice Biometrics, we can cut human error when it comes to logging in or theft of Past-Words. Including duplication of devices because there are no Past-Words. Even if someone is able to get to the login page, there is no way for them to duplicate your voice!

Whether you are an individual reading this at your desk, a C-Suite level executive, or an IT password manager, we all worry about being hacked. Data breaches, employee negligence, or another call about Past-Words weigh in the back of our minds. These scenarios can not only be scary, but extremely costly.

Whether it is your time helping your parents reset their Past-Words, or an employee’s account being breached because they had their Bluetooth active at Starbucks, ValidSoft’s technologies eliminate these scenarios. You can call your parents more often now that you don’t have to worry about them asking for IT help!

To recap, ValidSoft’s technologies save time and stress while being more secure than the current login procedures. We pave the way for the future. Change can be intimidating, but needs to start somewhere.

Let’s all raise our voices to the future of logging in!
