A system for authenticating the calling device used to place a call to an enterprise call center. The system uses a premise component, a cloud-based Call Authentication Service (CAS), and orchestration between these two components. The premise component includes a number of sub-components including servers and probes. The CAS includes a Decision Engine that utilizes a number and variety of authentication plugins. The disclosed system may be used independently or as part of a multi-factor authentication strategy with other techniques such as reduced Knowledge-Based Authentication or voice biometrics.

Call authentication service systems and methods

A portable proxy for security management and privacy protection and methods of use are provided. The proxy establishes a connection to a user device. The proxy also establishes a secure connection to a virtual private network (VPN), performs authentication of the proxy to the VPN, and upon successful completion of the proxy authentication provides access to the VPN through the secure connection user credentials. Once the VPN accepts the credentials, the proxy routes at least a portion of Internet traffic between the user device and the VPN through the secure connection and the connection to the user device. The proxy can also establish a secure connection to an anonymizing service and route all Internet traffic of the user device through the anonymizing service using the secure connection and the connection to the user device.
