Abstract
Provided are methods and systems to verify user identity for voice enabled devices. A voice input can instruct a voice enabled device to perform a plurality of functions/services that require user verification. Primary user verification can be performed by associating voice characteristics of the voice input to a profile associated with a user/user device. A signal (e.g., a BLE beacon) can be sent to the user device that causes the user device to perform secondary user verification. The secondary user verification can be based on a biometric input, passcode verification, authenticated message reply, for example. Based on the secondary user verification, an operational command associated with the voice input can be executed.
