Setting up Cortana to answer only your voice
Cortana has a shortcut that allows the user to say "Hey, Cortana" to activate the Microsoft Virtual Assistant. This allows anyone to use artificial intelligence software to do research, access files, or open programs even without authorization. To prevent this from happening, you can get her to learn your voice and respond only to you.
