  • Patent number: 10063693
    Abstract: A system and method for recording media for a contact center includes establishing via a processor in a first geographic location, a communication session between first and second communication devices. The processor determines that media exchanged during the media session is to be recorded. The processor identifies a second geographic location associated with a resource involved in the media session, and identifies a media controller associated with the second geographic location. The media controller bridges the media path between the first and second communication devices, and the media exchanged during the media session is recorded.

  • Patent number: 9596344
    Abstract: A system and method for recording media for a contact center where a processor is configured to determine that media exchanged between first and second communication devices during a telephony call is to be recorded; bridge a media path between the first and second communication devices; cause replicating of the media exchanged in the media path; encrypt the replicated media via a first cryptographic key for storing the encrypted media in a data storage device; and encrypt the first cryptographic key via a second cryptographic key for storing the encrypted first cryptographic key as metadata for the encrypted media.

  • Publication number: 20150189074
    Abstract: A system and method for handling call recording failures for a contact center. A processor receives information on a first media controller currently assigned to a telephony call. The first media controller bridges a first media path between the first and second communication devices and records, into a storage device, media exchanged in the first media path during the telephony call. The processor detects failure of the first media controller during the telephony call, where the failure of the first media controller tears down the first media path. In response to detecting the failure, the processor bridges a second media path between the first and second communication devices until a second media controller is identified. In response to the second media controller being identified, the second media controller is signaled to bridge and record media exchanged during the telephony call.

  • Publication number: 20140270105
    Abstract: A system and method for network recording and speech analytics wherein a recording system receives media exchanged between first and second communication devices during a telephony call. The media is received by the recording system over a wide area network. The recording system bridges a media path between the first and second communication devices, and replicates media exchanged in the media path for storing the replicated media in a mass storage device. The recording system further captures metadata associated with the call, and stores the captured metadata in association with the stored media. The stored media and metadata may then be provided to a requesting device over the wide area network. The recording system may also be configured to analyze the call recording along with the associated metadata for detecting key words or phrases and/or triggering actionable events.

  • Publication number: 20140270141
    Abstract: A system and method for recording media for a contact center allows for call event tagging and call recording stitching. A processor receives call metadata for a telephony call. The call includes a link to a recording of media exchanged during the telephony call. The processor receives a call event associated with the telephony call. The call event includes a timestamp of when the event occurred during the telephony call. The processor stores the call metadata and the call event in a database record. The processor retrieves the database record for displaying the call event on a display device. A user command is received for identifying the call event in response to the display on the display device. A portion of the recording associated with the call event is retrieved in response to the user command. An audible rendering is then provided of the retrieved portion of the recording.

  • Publication number: 20140280720
    Abstract: A system and method for optimized rendering of contact center services in a hybrid operations environment. A processor in a first operations environment receives a message transmitted by a first contact center resource relating to a contact center service. The message is forwarded to the processor by an edge device coupled to a second operations environment different from the first operations environment. The edge device is configured to hide from the message identification of a location of the contact center resource. Despite such hiding, the processor identifies the location of the first contact center resource based on identification information that the processor retrieves from the message. The processor selects a second contact center resource based on the identified location of the first contact center resource for providing the contact center service.
