Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on computer storage media for containment of sensitive data within a communication platform. The system displays a communication interface including a first input section for receiving an input message associated with a sending user account, and a display section for displaying message information received by the sending user account from other user accounts. The system determines a requirement to input sensitive information. The system then displays a sensitive data user interface including second input section for receiving a sensitive message, and an interface control for setting an expiration time value for the sensitive message.
Claims19
A communication system comprising one or more processors configured to perform the operations of:
- displaying a communication interface, the communication interface comprising:
- a first input section for receiving an input message associated with a sending user account, and
- a display section for displaying message information received by the sending user account from other user accounts;
- determining a requirement to input sensitive information, comprising:
- evaluating an input message received in the first input section, and
- determining that the received input message includes sensitive information;
- displaying a sensitive data user interface, the sensitive data user interface comprising:
- a second input section for receiving a sensitive message, wherein the input message received in the first input section is copied into the second input section, and
- an interface control for setting an expiration time value for the sensitive message;
- and
- transmitting, to at least a receiving user account, a notification that a sensitive message has been sent, wherein the sensitive message is accessible by the receiving user account for the duration of the expiration time value.
A method for providing access to a sensitive message within a communication platform, comprising:
- receiving, from a sending client device, an input message;
- determining a requirement to input a sensitive message, comprising:
- evaluating the received input message, and
- determining that the received input message includes sensitive information;
- providing for display, at the sending client device, a sensitive data user interface comprising:
- an input section for receiving a sensitive message, wherein the input message received in the first input section is copied into the second input section, and
- an interface control for setting an expiration time value for accessing the sensitive message;
- receiving, from the sending client device, the sensitive message and an expiration time value for the sensitive message;
- transmitting, to a receiving client device, a notification that the sensitive message is available for viewing;
- and
- providing, for display at the receiving client device, access to the sensitive message within the expiration time value.
