Abstract

A computer-implemented system and method for protecting sensitive information within a call center in real time is provided. A call from a caller is received within a call center. The call is assigned to an agent and a determination is made as to when the caller is to provide sensitive information. The user is transferred to an automated voice response system to which the sensitive information is provided, while maintaining the call with the agent. The caller is returned to the agent upon providing the sensitive information. A notification regarding a status of the sensitive information is sent and the call is terminated.
