ValidSoft Granted European Patent for Groundbreaking See-Say® AI Voice Secure™ Authentication System
London, UK, Hartford,CT — 4th November 2025 — ValidSoft, a global leader in voice biometric authentication and privacy-first identity assurance solutions, today announced that the European Patent Office (EPO) has officially granted a European patent for its invention titled “An Authentication Method and System.”
The newly granted patent protects the company’s innovative See-Say® Trusted Identity Assurance™ technology — a breakthrough AI Voice Secure™ authentication solution that integrates voice biometrics, speech recognition, and cryptography to deliver Trusted Identity Assurance™ to non-repudiation level, whilst also delivering irrevocability and transaction data immutability . This milestone reinforces ValidSoft’s leadership in secure, privacy-compliant, and user-friendly authentication for enterprises worldwide.
Reinventing Authentication for the Modern Enterprise
Traditional security measures such as passwords and one-time passcodes (OTPs) are vulnerable to credential theft, and social engineering attacks, which exploit human error rather than technical flaws. See-Say® provides a fundamentally different approach — one that verifies the person behind the access attempt, not just their credentials.
With See-Say®, users simply “say what they see”: a sequence of digits cryptographically tied to their specific access request. The system verifies who is speaking (via voice biometrics), what was said (via speech recognition), and ensures non-repudiation (via real-time cryptographic binding). This process delivers a seamless, secure experience that is faster and easier than retrieving or typing an OTP — while offering unmatched protection against replay, spoofing, and deepfake attacks.
“This patent underscores ValidSoft’s commitment to redefining how trust and identity are established in the digital age,” said Pat Carroll, Executive Chairman,CEO, ValidSoft. “See-Say is more than a security innovation — it’s a paradigm shift in how financial institutions and enterprises can deliver frictionless access and uncompromised assurance at the same time. We’re proud to see our team’s pioneering work recognised and protected across Europe.”
Trusted Identity, Privacy Guaranteed
As the only voice security company in the world to have been granted four European privacy seals (EuroPriSe™), ValidSoft designs all its technology to ensure complete privacy compliance. The See-Say® solution cannot be reverse engineered, is quantum safe and contains no personally identifiable information (PII), making stolen data worthless to attackers and ensuring enterprises remain fully aligned with GDPR and other global privacy regulations.
See-Say® integrates easily with existing Zero Trust, Privileged Access Management (PAM), and Identity and Access Management (IAM) frameworks. The solution provides trusted identity assurance whilst reducing friction for end users — a major step forward for organisations seeking to strengthen security without sacrificing usability or experience.
Expanding ValidSoft’s Innovation Footprint with New European Patent
This latest European patent expands ValidSoft’s already robust IP portfolio, bringing the company’s total to over 25 granted patents across voice biometrics, privacy assurance, and AI-driven authentication. It also supports potential protection under the European Unitary Patent system, extending the reach of ValidSoft’s innovations across EU member states and reinforcing its position as a leader in privacy-first authentication technology.
“We have always believed that security and usability should not be at odds,” added Alex Korff COO&GC, ValidSoft. “See-Say® proves that authentication can be simple, secure, strong and privacy-first — a combination that enterprises have been seeking for years.”
