IVR-OTP

IVR-OTP refers to Interactive Voice Response One-Time Password, a method used for authentication in non-human identities.

Description

IVR-OTP is a secure authentication mechanism that leverages Interactive Voice Response (IVR) technology to deliver a One-Time Password (OTP) to users, typically during automated phone calls. This method is especially useful in scenarios involving Non-Human Identities (NHIs), such as automated systems, bots, or applications that require secure access without human intervention. When a system needs to verify its identity or perform a secure transaction, it can initiate an IVR call to the registered phone number of the NHI. The system then generates a unique OTP and conveys it through the IVR system, allowing for secure authentication. This process helps in preventing unauthorized access and ensures that only the legitimate NHI can perform sensitive actions. IVR-OTP is commonly used in banking, financial services, and other sectors where security is paramount, while also being scalable and efficient for automated processes.

Examples

  • A banking bot receives an IVR call with an OTP to authorize a transaction.
  • An automated service provider uses IVR-OTP to verify the identity of a registered system before granting access to sensitive information.

Additional Information

  • IVR-OTP enhances security by providing a time-sensitive password that is valid for a single session only.
  • This method can be integrated with various automated systems to facilitate secure transactions without human interaction.
