VOICE AUTHENTICATION USING VOICEXML

User Authentication through voice is one of the methods to ensure the protection of the
sensitive data over the Internet. In this research, author wants to explore the technology
and acquire clear understanding of VoiceXML, its concept and its architecture. Provided
with understanding ofVoiceXML concept and architecture, this research will examines 3
levels of security using VoiceXML capabilities as a solution for validating users. The
identified solutions will lead to development of VoiceXML prototype using available
VoiceXML application development tool. This project has two main objectives. The first
objective is to understand VoiceXML technology architecture and learn to develop and
design a VoiceXML application. The second objective of the project is to observe three
levels of securityas a solution for validating users. This project involved two approaches
whichare performing researchon VoiceXML technology and developinga prototype that
conclude the findings on the research performed. In the development of the prototype,
Voice Application Life Cycle methodology is used which include 4 phases; Planning,
Prototyping and Iteration, Development, and Launch. As the result, the prototype is
expected to take full advantages ofcurrent VoiceXML technology. The prototype can be
used as a template for future use by developers in order to make their voice application
achieve the goal of user authentication which is to make the right information reliably
and securely available to the right people. The final product for the projectis a prototype
that has been called Voice Authentication through Speech Recognition that focuses on
different level ofsecurity using voice authentication with VoiceXML.
