Behavioral authentication methods such as keystroke analysis are also supported. For maximum flexibility and backward compatibility, Daon also provides a full scope of authentication methods including password/passphrase, PIN, OTP, and pattern as well as device binding methods using a mobile device or security key.

Daon offers this entire product portfolio to a global customer base for deployment on-premises or via cloud-hosted managed services.
Daon Contact Center Authentication includes a Voice Gateway component which is connected to the voice network to capture voice samples for both enrollment and subsequent authentication. The Daon voice biometrics offering includes (1) text-dependent/active voice, which requires three utterances of a prescribed phrase for enrollment and then a repeat of that phrase for authentication; and (2) text-independent/passive voice, which requires approximately 25 seconds of speech for enrollment and then between 2-5 seconds of speech for authentication. Through Daon voice biometrics, clients have seen a dramatic reduction of fraud in their contact center operations.
Key Differentiators
- Universal Voice Model allows quick ramp-up to support various languages without having to collect hundreds of voice samples for each language and accent for training purposes.
- Multi-modal cross-channel biometrics allows the setup of seamless user journeys across channels using different authentication methods (e.g., temporarily switching from voice over telephony to facial matching via a mobile app as a step-up authentication to complete a high-value transaction).
- Pre-integrated IdentityX® platform provides out-of-the-box end-user identity continuity across Identity Verification & Onboarding, Mobile & Web Authentication, and Contact Center Authentication, which allows for quick ramp-up from proof of concept to production, extending across all platform components.
