Systems and methods for secure recording in a customer center environment
First Claim
1. A method for protecting information provided during a communication session, said method comprising:
- recording data associated with the communication session at a recorder, the data being acquired by a capture ending at a media distribution device, wherein the recorder has a telephony component to adjust packet size or change codec of a communication session before recording it, thereby modifying the communication, wherein a conference bridge then transmits the modified communications data to the recorder to record the modified communications data in optimal fashion;
receiving an instruction at the recorder, the instruction being forwarded from the media distribution device;
protecting the data at the recorder from unauthorized access in response to receiving the instruction; and
stopping protecting the data after a predetermined timeout period expires.

Abstract
Systems and methods for secure recording in a customer center environment are provided. The system receives data related to a communication at a media distribution device. A key is provided by a key server to the media distribution device to encrypt the received data. In addition, an identifier may be associated with the received data. The key and the identifier are stored in a database associated with the key server. The encrypted data is recorded the a recorder, where it is accessible to authorized users within the customer center. Upon request, the key is provided to the authorized user to decrypt the encrypted data for play back. The customer center environment may include a user interface for viewing customer contacts. The contact may be organized into folders and annotations associated with the customer contacts may be received.

8. An apparatus for protecting information provided during a communication session, comprising:
-
a recorder that records data associated with the communication session that is acquired by a capture ending at a media distribution device, and that receives an instruction from the media distribution device to protect the data from unauthorized access by at least one of pausing the recording, inserting silence into at least a portion of the recording or encrypting at least a portion of the data, wherein the recorder has a telephony component to adjust packet size or change codec of a communication session before recording it, thereby modifying the communication, wherein a conference bridge then transmits the modified communications data to the recorder to record the modified communications data in optimal fashion; wherein after a predetermined timeout period expires, the data is unprotected. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)
