Communication monitoring systems and methods
A system comprising: (a) a compliance server adapted to receive an audio feed of a telephone conversation; (b) an identification module adapted to ascertain IP addresses from which said audio feed originates and identify participants in said telephone conversation using said IP addresses; and (c) an analysis module adapted to ascertain a subject of said telephone conversation.
1. A system comprising:
(a) a compliance server adapted to receive an audio feed of a telephone conversation;
(b) an identification module adapted to ascertain IP addresses from which said audio feed originates and identify participants in said telephone conversation using said IP addresses; and
(c) an analysis module adapted to ascertain a subject of said telephone conversation;
(d) a certification engine adapted to generate a certified copy of the telephone conversation in response to a request from an institution that participated in the conversation.
2. A system according to claim 1 , wherein said telephone conversation is in progress.
3. A system according to claim 1 , wherein said telephone conversation has been concluded.
4. A system according to claim 1 , wherein said analysis module analyzes the audio feed directly.
5. A system according to claim 4 wherein said analysis module relies exclusively on microphone out audio feeds.
6. A system according to claim 1 , comprising a speech to text converter which converts said audio stream to a text output.
7. A system according to claim 6 , wherein said analysis module analyzes said text output to ascertain said subject of said telephone conversation.
8. A system according to claim 1 , comprising a co-ordination module which associates a unique identifier (UID) with each audio stream and transmits said UID to at least one institution represented in said telephone conversation.
9. A system according to claim 1 , comprising:
a co-ordination module which associates a unique identifier (UID) with each audio stream; and
a storage module which stores said audio stream/UID pair and grants access to said pair to at least one institution represented in said telephone conversation.
10. A system according to claim 1 , comprising:
a verification module adapted to require at least one participant in said telephone conversation to identify the other participant(s) in the conversation and the subject of the conversation.
11. A system according to claim 8 , comprising:
a query engine adapted to provide a response to a query containing a UID.
12. A system according to claim 11 , wherein said query engine is adapted to generate a hierarchical listing of all records associated with a specific UID.
13. A system according to claim 1 comprising:
a template generation module adapted to retrieve a template from a template database based on said subject of said conversation and present said template to all participants in said conversation during said conversation; and
a template filling module configured to receive audio feed from at least one participant in said telephone conversation and populate fields in said template with details from said conversation prior to conclusion of said conversation.
14. A method comprising:
(a) receiving an audio feed of a telephone conversation in progress;
(b) ascertaining the telephone numbers of participants in said conversation; and
(c) causing a user interface to appear on a device owned by at least one of the participants in the conversation
(d) generating a certified copy of the telephone conversation in response to a request from an institution that participated in the conversation.
15. A method according to claim 14 , wherein said ascertaining comprises using a look-up table of IP addresses associated with telephone numbers.
16. A method according to claim 14 , wherein said causing comprises remote launching of an application.
17. A method according to claim 14 , wherein said causing comprises transmission of an SMS to a mobile phone.
18. A method according to claim 14 , wherein a compliance server performs said receiving.
