The present invention relates to an adult authentication service providing system and a method thereof, and more particularly, to a system and method for providing a service related to adult authentication using speech recognition.

In general, the communication service network uses an authentication function to determine whether the subscriber is legal (minor or poor creditor), and prepares for the need to prohibit the service right for each subscriber due to the late payment of the service fee. It also uses the Authorization function for subscribers.

The telephone information service, which must apply the adult authentication or authorization function, is also categorized into general, adult, and youth, and provided accordingly. In reality, it is very difficult for network operators to systematically manage operators and restrict information users.

In other words, the network service provider requests each information service provider to restrict the use of each service user according to the contents of the information to be provided. This results in cost savings from the installation or operation of a separate certified device.

Therefore, such request and management of network operators cannot prevent the illegal and unhealthy use of telephone information provided by each information provider.

On the other hand, in order to prevent indiscriminate waste of resources and time caused by the use of illegal phone information, some information providers have performed adult authentication methods through input of a social security number, but it is necessary for service users to input buttons for each number. At the same time, a minor who knows the social security number of his or her relatives or relatives enters the number, but cannot distinguish it.

This not only causes curious and impulsive youth to receive long hours of information, but also results in an economic waste of huge information fees.

Therefore, there is a need for an apparatus and a method for realistically providing information in accordance with accurate adult authentication for each service user.

The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to solve such a problem, by performing a personal authentication through voice recognition of authorized information (name) received from the certification authority and the name of the service user directly, to steal the social security number It is to provide an adult authentication service providing system and method using voice recognition that can prevent the use of indiscriminate telephone information service.
