Edgile Caller Verifier
Know who is calling your help desk
Unverified help desk calls are a big risk
Most companies have an internal team that caters to the needs of their employees and the organization. However, hackers are using a new tactic to gain access to help desks. They pretend to be an employee and call the support team to request sensitive information or access to confidential resources like user passwords, SharePoint sites, and documents.
It’s important for companies to verify the identity of callers who reach their internal support line. Typically, companies rely on knowledge-based techniques such as requesting a Social Security number or date of birth. Although these methods can be helpful, a more consistent and effective approach that securely confirms the caller’s identity in a centralized location is needed. Edgile’s Caller Verifier addresses this gap by using secure verification methods to authenticate callers.
If the user cannot be verified through the listed methods, the service desk agent can manually verify them if they are convinced that they are speaking to the correct person. An authoritative source like Workday or SuccessFactors can use an API to input the employee ID, the last four digits of the caller’s SSN, and their date of birth. The API will then return a true or false result indicating if the combination is valid, and this same process can be used with any HR source.
