If the VM is not protected using a PIN, then they have a bigger problem.

Another option is to give the user's password to their manager. And
ask the user to contact their manager to retrieve the password. The
managers tend to recognize the voice and talking style of their direct
reports. Voice and talking style could be used to authenticate the
user by their managers.

Not the most elegant way, but it is inexpensive and doesn't require
additional infrastructure.....
