Abstract

Voice verification systems for controlling access to electronic accounts using spoken utterances are disclosed. These systems include a database of words and a sentence synthesis engine that uses the dictionary to construct challenge sentences. A challenge logic routine selects a challenge sentence and processes a spoken response from an entity to determine if the entity is authorized to access an electronic account. Both human and machine spoken utterances can be processed as responses, and in some embodiments, the entity may be an automated agent authorized by a human to conduct transactions in said electronic account.
