1. A method for providing electronic keys to encrypt and decrypt secure, captured data in a customer center, comprising the steps of:
- establishing a secure communication over a network between a key management system in a customer center and a playback component in the customer center by transmitting authentication information from the playback component to the key management system via the network, wherein establishing the secure communication further comprises receiving the authentication information by a recording subsystem and determining whether the playback component has authentication based on the authentication information;
transmitting, from the key management system via the network, a duplicate copy of an electronic key to a cache that is electrically coupled to the playback component,receiving, at the cache, a request to retrieve the electronic key from the playback component, the request including a key identification associated with the electronic key and unique identifiers associated with stored data and being generated from unencrypted captured data; and
transmitting, from the cache, the retrieved electronic key to the playback component to decrypt stored secured, captured data, wherein the encrypted data comprises a communication between a customer and an agent of the customer center.

6. A system for playing back a stored, encrypted data in a customer center comprising:
-
a secure communication over a network between a key management system, a playback component of a customer center and a recording subsystem of the customer center to retrieve the stored, encrypted data, wherein the encrypted data comprises a communication between a customer and an agent of the customer center; the recording subsystem operative to; receive a request to retrieve the stored, encrypted data via the network from the playback component, transmit the stored, encrypted data and an electronic key via the network to the playback component, and transmit a request, to a cache, to retrieve the electronic key for decrypting the stored, encrypted data via the network; the playback component operative to; transmit a request to retrieve the stored, encrypted data via the network to the recording subsystem, receive the stored, encrypted data and the electronic key via the network from the recording subsystem, and decrypt the stored, encrypted data using the electronic key to create decrypted data, and play back the decrypted data; and the key management system operative to; receive the request to retrieve the electronic key for decrypting the data, the request including a key identification associated with the electronic key and unique identifiers associated with the stored data and being generated from unencrypted data that comprises a communication between the customer and the agent of the customer center. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A system for playing back a stored, encrypted data in a customer center comprising:
-
a secure communication over a network between a playback component of a customer center and a recording subsystem of the customer center to retrieve the stored, encrypted data, wherein the encrypted data comprises a communication between a customer and an agent of the customer center; the recording subsystem operative to; receive a request to retrieve the stored, encrypted data via the network from the playback component, transmit the encrypted data and an electronic key via the network, and transmit a request to retrieve the electronic key for decrypting the stored, encrypted data via the network to a cache; the cache operative to receive the request to retrieve the electronic key for decrypting the data, the request including one of a key identification associated with the electronic key and unique identifier associated with the stored data; the playback component operative to; transmit a request to retrieve the stored, encrypted data via the network to the recording subsystem, the request including a key identification associated with the electronic key and unique identifiers associated with the stored, encrypted data and being generated from unencrypted data that comprises the communication between the customer and the agent of the customer center, receive the stored, encrypted data and the electronic key via the network from the recording subsystem, decrypt the stored, encrypted data using the electronic key to create decrypted data, play back the decrypted data; and a key management system operative to transmit a duplicate copy of the key to the cache.
