    If the customer does not know the PIN but knows the Security Q&A is the customer authenticated?

    • Yes. Knowing the Security Q&A is just as good as knowing the PIN.

    • No. Security Q&A can't be used in lieu of the PIN.

    Correct Answer
    A. Yes. Knowing the Security Q&A is just as good as knowing the PIN.
    Explanation
    Knowing the Security Q&A is considered a form of authentication because it is a piece of information that only the customer should know. Just like a PIN, the Security Q&A helps verify the identity of the customer and grants them access to their account. Therefore, if the customer does not know the PIN but knows the Security Q&A, they can still be authenticated.

    Explanation
    It is important to re-authenticate the caller when receiving a cold transferred call, even if the customer claims to have already provided the PIN and/or Security Q&A. This is necessary to ensure the security and accuracy of the information being discussed. By re-authenticating the caller, it helps to prevent unauthorized access to sensitive information and protects the customer's account from potential fraud or identity theft.

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. TRUE
    Explanation
    Once the PIN is set up in Ensemble, the system will automatically delete the Passcode. This means that the Passcode will no longer be valid or required for accessing the system. This feature ensures that only the PIN is needed for authentication and provides an added layer of security by removing the need for a separate Passcode. Therefore, the statement is true.

    If customer is authenticated via Legacy method, agent can provide a copy of an invoice electronically (via fax or email)

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. FALSE
    Explanation
    The statement is false because if a customer is authenticated via the Legacy method, the agent cannot provide a copy of an invoice electronically. The Legacy method typically refers to outdated or old-fashioned methods of authentication that do not involve modern electronic communication channels such as fax or email. Therefore, the agent would need to provide the copy of the invoice through traditional means such as physical mail or in-person pickup.

    • Yes. When you receive a call warm transferred from any internal Sprint department and the Sprint Representative advises you that he/she authenticated the caller, you need to re- authenticate the caller.

    • No. When you receive a call warm transferred from any internal Sprint department and the Sprint Representative advises you that he/she authenticated the caller, you do not need to re- authenticate the caller.

    • No. When you receive any transferred call you do not need to re- authenticate the caller; the bypass option should be selected.

    Correct Answer
    A. No. When you receive a call warm transferred from any internal Sprint department and the Sprint Representative advises you that he/she authenticated the caller, you do not need to re- authenticate the caller.
    Explanation
    When a call is warm transferred from an internal Sprint department and the Sprint Representative confirms that they have already authenticated the caller, it is not necessary to re-authenticate the caller. This means that the authentication process has already been completed by the Sprint Representative, so there is no need for additional authentication.
