Countering Illegitimate Activations of a Smart Voice Assistant

This study focuses on ensuring the security of smart voice assistants against the most pressing threats by reducing the number of illegitimate activations. An analysis of threats to smart voice assistants (SVAs) and a list of the functional capabilities of voice assistants are presented. The goal is to reduce the number of illegitimate activations of SVAs. The architecture and operating method of a proprietary security module that reduces the number of illegitimate activations are presented. The developed module is tested and the results are positive.
