Exhibit 1Which method fits your calls
How often do customers call?Often
Voice biometrics or network authenticationEither works. Frequent callers repay the effort of registering a voice.
Voice biometricsFrequent, high-risk callers justify enrolment, and a voice cannot be borrowed by a relative the way a phone can.
Rarely
Network authenticationThe sweet spot for network authentication. Asking rare callers to register a voice is overkill.
Network authentication plus a step-up, or voice biometricsAdd a step-up check for the risky transactions, or enrol the customers who make them.
