System, device and method for enforcing privacy during a communication session with a voice assistant

An application server, comprising:

• a processor;
• a memory coupled to the processor, the memory having stored thereon executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the application server to:
• initiate a first secure communication session between a first voice assistant device and the application server for a resource owner, wherein a secure communication session authorizes the application server to access private data in a secure resource and communicate private data from the secure resource to other devices, wherein session data for the first secure communication session is stored by the application server in a secure container;
• in response to a determination that an environment of the first voice assistant device is not private:
• suspend the first secure communication session between the first voice assistant device and the application server;
• determine from an authorization table stored by the application server whether any other voice assistant devices have been authorized for communication with the application server;
• in response to a determination that one or more other voice assistant devices have been authorized for communication with the application server:
• cause the first voice assistant device to generate a prompt for input whether to transfer the first secure communication session to one of the one or more other voice assistant devices that have been authorized for communication with the application server;
• in response to input to transfer the first secure communication session to one of the one or more other voice assistant devices that have been authorized for communication with the application server:
• initiate a second secure communication session between a second voice assistant device and the application server;
• and
• terminate the first secure communication session between the first voice assistant device and the application server in response to successful initiation of the second secure communication session between the second voice assistant device and the application server.
