Method and sytem for protecting privacy of users in session recordings

A method of protecting private information using a computer system, the method comprising:

• scanning user interface (UI) data representative of a plurality of UI controls;
• detecting at least one portion of the UI data associated with private information, the at least one portion of UI data corresponding to at least one UI control of the plurality of UI controls;
• recording, during an interactive computing session of a user, first session data comprising an obfuscated version of the at least one UI control and unobfuscated versions of other UI controls of the plurality of UI controls;
• recording, during the same interactive computing session of the user, second session data comprising an unobfuscated version of the at least one UI control;
• encrypting the second session data to generate encrypted session data;
• and
• storing the encrypted session data in association with the first session data.

A non-transitory computer readable medium storing processor executable instructions to protect private information, the instructions comprising instructions to:

• scan user interface (UI) data representative of a plurality of UI controls;
• detect at least one portion of the UI data associated with private information, the at least one portion of UI data corresponding to at least one UI control of the plurality of UI controls;
• record, during an interactive computing session of a user, first session data comprising an obfuscated version of the at least one UI control and unobfuscated versions of other UI controls of the plurality of UI controls;
• record, during the same interactive computing session of the user, second session data comprising an unobfuscated version of the at least one UI control;
• encrypt the second session data to generate encrypted session data;
• and
• store the encrypted session data in association with the first session data.
