A series of accounts in tech news outlets and mainstream newspapers make it sound like anybody with voice synthesis software can spoof their way through contact center authentication routines. Truth is, all of us have to be sensitive to how Deepfakes and Synthetic Voice can take advantage of security holes within business organizations. 
 
Contact centers are an increasingly attractive target as work shifts to remote resources, workflows change and calls increase in both complexity and volume. A recent global survey by Opus Research documented a multiplier effect spawning increases in resource requirements on contact centers if they are to maintain customer service levels. The imperative is on customer service organizations and businesses of all sizes to acknowledge and understand these new threats and security exposures.

Addressing Challenges of the New Economy with Conversational Intelligence

For too many businesses, deploying bots has been a costly drain on financial resources and personnel without commensurate business benefits. Today, new technologies, informed by large language models, promise to reduce the time it takes to train chatbots and intelligent virtual assistants minimizing the headcount required to deliver high-quality, conversational self-service.

Conversational Intelligence: Empowering Human and Virtual Agents

The recent high-profile Lapsus$ attack has made it abundantly clear that zero-trust must start with guaranteeing a user’s identity. Without this ability, physical network and authorization constraints are meaningless. The market needs to move quickly to plug the vulnerability in Zero Trust (ZT). With No Identity, there is No Zero Trust.
 
In this webcast, Opus Research and ValidSoft’s CEO Pat Carroll will discuss:
 • How to build Zero Trust on solid ground
 • Why you need Zero Trust Identity Security
 • How you can implement ZT Identity Security using Voice Biometrics

No Guaranteed Identity, No Zero Trust!

While a handful of voice assistants introduced by tech giants have become household names, their high-profile has not been accompanied by reliable results and repeated use.

The lack of ubiquitous voice apps and general blasé uptake by consumers has Opus Research and Speechly asking the question: are voice assistants necessary?

Topics include:
-- Achieving business results for reducing abandoned calls, queue time, and talk time
-- The value of no-cost, easy implementation and performance-based pricing
-- How RedRoute's solution is helping businesses today
-- Brooklinen's RedRoute integration experience and performance

Overview of topic and discussion
The key to providing a great customer experience is meeting customers in their support channel of choice, the phone. Automated self-service and intelligent assistants benefit from simple, narrow support requirements for customer care, saving considerable live agent costs in call deflection. The best call automation assistants can reliably handle high volumes of user intents (e.g., status of order, cancel order, change my order, returns, etc.) with impressive precision. The benefits are well known but have long been out-of-reach for most brands.

One company that is delivering better customer experiences with call automation is RedRoute. The company has achieved success by emphasizing speed to deploy (~30 minutes) and delivering results. For contact centers on modern tech stacks, RedRoute can automate a significant portion of calls and free live agents to handle more complex support cases, enabling brands to affordably deliver high quality phone support. RedRoute's SaaS solution has strong adoption with eCommerce brands, and the company just announced the closing of their $6.5M Seed Round.

Integrating Voice into Omnichannel Bot Solutions

As more and more contact centers adopt natural language technologies, what will it take for customers to truly accept voice assistants?  Advancements voice assistants (Siri, Alexa, etc.) are not taking place in a historical vacuum. Individual end-users -- be they prospects, first-time shoppers, or long-time rewards program members -- have grown skeptical of the ability for a “voicebot” to meet their immediate needs. When it comes to voice assistants and speech-enabled services, public acceptance, expectations, and use consistently lagged behind technological advancements.   In this live, interactive webinar with Opus Research and PolyAi (Tuesday, Nov 16), learn how voice services are now results-oriented, success-focused, and faster than alternatives. Topics include:  * Long-term success will drive more use cases and increased usage * Real-world examples of both “good” and “bad” voice assistants * Checklist for success: Understand synonyms, accents, languages and handle multiple intents

The Voice Assistance Challenge: Exceeding Customer Expectations

Digital Transformation is hard! But, these days, it’s mandatory. To stay competitive, companies must make themselves available to their as they turn to online resources and mobile devices to make crucial contact. The problem is that, as they support omnichannel and multi-modal strategies, they are moving IVRs and contact center resources to “the Cloud.” And many businesses are challenged to manage and maintain optimal customer care for both an on-premise and hosted environments.

Join Opus Research and Speech-Soft Solutions as they describe critical steps you can take to master the dual challenges presented when companies must apply new technologies to respond to customers’ rapidly changing expectations. Topics include:

* The Checkered Past of Cloud Migration
* What’s New? – Adding AI-infused Resources
* Why Now? 
* The Self-Service Saga

Taking on the Insurmountable: Migrating Customer Care to the Cloud

In this Age of Digital Transformation, it is a major challenge for Contact Center and CX professionals just to keep voice-based resources up and running… not to mention managing to keep technology fresh and add new capabilities. Too often they feel they are “damned if they do” buy into the view that the customer care is moving to chat and text or “damned if they don’t” keep the voice channel up-to-date with the latest and greatest AI-infused technologies. Join Opus Research and LumenVox executives to:
 
• Identify elements of the voice channel most in need of an upgrade
•	Understand strategies and tactics for introducing AI-infused voice elements
•	Determine how to migrate elements with an uncertain future to proven solutions
•	Take advantage of those proven solutions at the lowest price

The Age of Voice Innovation, Part II: What Keeps You Up at Night

CX, Contact Center and Customer Care professionals are clamoring for solutions that make voicebots and chatbots more “affective,” meaning “sensitive and empathetic to customers’ emotional state”. Too often these initiatives are at odds with the core demand for self-service resources to be more “effective,” meaning “efficient and active” in helping customers complete their desired tasks.

Join executives from Opus Research and Zaion in a video discussion and demonstration of technologies and approaches to making affective bots more effective for customers, specifically:

•	How does affective application of AI result in effective responses? 
•	Can a bot really be empathetic?
