Abstract
A system and method for securely recording voice communications, comprising a network-connected computer server and an authentication system which verifies the validity of voice communications.
Claims8
A system for securely recording voice communications, comprising:
- a network-connected computer server comprising a memory, a processor, and a first plurality of programming instructions stored in the memory which, when executed by the processor, causes the network-connected computer server to:
- receive an interaction via a network, the interaction comprising a plurality of conversations each comprising one or more of the following media types:
- audio, video, email, and short message service (SMS);
- generate a recording of the interaction;
- receive a timestamp and hash of the recording as a first part of an authentication process of the recording;
- encrypt the recorded interaction with the timestamp embedded therein using the received hash;
- publish the timestamp to a block chain as a zero-value block chain transaction as a second part of the authentication process of the recording;
- and
- store the encrypted interaction recording in a secure database.

A method for securely recording voice communications, the method comprising the steps of:
- receiving, at a network-connected computer server comprising a memory, a processor, and a first plurality of programming instructions, an interaction via a network, the interaction comprising a plurality of conversations each comprising one or more of the following media types:
- audio, video, email, and short message service (SMS);
- generating, by the network-connected computer server, a recording of the interaction;
- receiving a timestamp and hash of the recording as a first part of an authentication process of the recording;
- encrypting the recorded interaction with the timestamp embedded therein using the received hash;
- publishing the timestamp to a block chain as a zero-value block chain transaction as a second part of the authentication process of the recording;
- and
- storing the encrypted interaction recording in a secure database.
