SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR AUTOMATICALLY CONDUCTING RISK ASSESSMENTS FOR TELEPHONY COMMUNICATIONS
Systems and methods are disclosed for using machine-learning techniques for labeling incoming calls with categories relating to a risk level. A model is generated using call log data. The call log data is augmented using information from additional data sources to generate features for the model. The model may then be used to categorize additional incoming calls. The model may be used in real-time to categorize incoming calls, or categorization results may be stored for a plurality of calling numbers. Various embodiments provide various technical advantages by virtue of how the components of the system are deployed between an endpoint communication device, a telephony provider system, and possibly other systems.
Simultaneous visual and telephonic access to interactive information delivery
A server, method, and system for providing information to an electronic device are provided. An audio-based connection is established with the electronic device. A first identifier of the electronic device is determined in association with the audio-based connection. The electronic device is detected as being able to support a visual-based connection based on the first identifier. A second identifier of the electronic device is determined based on the first identifier. Visual information is provided to the electronic device via the visual-based connection after detecting that the electronic device is able to support the visual-based connection and determining the second identifier. The visual information is provided to the electronic device based on the second identifier.
Policy-based order jeopardy management
An order jeopardy manager is provided that manages order jeopardy. A jeopardy order condition to be applied to an order is received. The jeopardy order condition includes an order state transition path and a jeopardy time threshold. The order state transition path includes zero or more from-states and one or more to-states to define one or more order state transitions. The order is determined to be in jeopardy when the order fails to complete one of the order state transitions within the jeopardy time threshold. A jeopardy notification is generated, responsive to the determining, indicating that the order is in jeopardy.
Method and apparatus for threat identification through analysis of communications signaling, events, and participants
Aspects of the invention determining a threat score of a call traversing a telecommunications network by leveraging the signaling used to originate, propagate and terminate the call. Outer-edge data utilized to originate the call may be analyzed against historical, or third party real-time data to determine the propensity of calls originating from those facilities to be categorized as a threat. Storing the outer edge data before the call is sent over the communications network permits such data to be preserved and not subjected to manipulations during traversal of the communications network. This allows identification of threat attempts based on the outer edge data from origination facilities, thereby allowing isolation of a compromised network facility that may or may not be known to be compromised by its respective network owner. Other aspects utilize inner edge data from an intermediate node of the communications network which may be analyzed against other inner edge data from other intermediate nodes and/or outer edge data.

Method and apparatus for extended management of state and interaction of a remote knowledge worker from a contact center
A network system for managing remote agents of a communication center includes a primary server connected to the network the primary server controlling at least one routing point; one or more secondary servers distributed on the network and accessible to the remote agents, the secondary server or servers having data access to agent computing platforms and communication peripherals; and, a software suite distributed in part to the secondary server or servers and distributed in part to one or more agents computing platforms and peripherals, the software suite including protocol for reporting agent status data. The system monitors agents computing platforms and peripherals for activity state through the one or more secondary servers whereupon the one or more secondary servers exchange control messaging and event related data using ISCC protocols with the primary server over the network for intelligent routing purposes.

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVISION OF A SECOND LINE SERVICE TO A TELECOMMUNICATIONS DEVICE
A method and system for providing a second line service (SLS) feature to a subscriber using a telecommunications device (TD) which includes receiving at a switch on the network of the subscriber's primary service provider a communication made up of a trigger and a directory number. When the communication is received at the primary service provider's switch, the switch parses the communication and detects the trigger. Once the switch has received the communication, the switch additionally transmits a query message to a SLS platform that manages the SLS feature. As a result of the switch's query message transmission, the switch receives a reply to the query message from the SLS platform. Based at least in part on the reply to the query message, the switch can route the communication such that the switch connects one or multiple voice channel circuit between the subscriber's TD and the terminating TD.
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PROVISION OF AN ADVANCED NETWORK FUNCTION TO A DEVICE
Enhanced capabilities within a telephone network are made accessible to a telecommunications device. The telecommunications device is used to dial a sequence. A network server receives and identifies the sequence invokes an advanced network function. A advanced network function server in communication with the network server provides instructions as to how the network server is to provide the advanced network function. The network server processes the call in accordance with the received instructions to provide the particular advanced network function.
