Abstract
To prevent exposing secure information, a first alphanumeric string is received and compared to a second alphanumeric string. After comparing the first alphanumeric string to the second alphanumeric string, it is determined whether the first alphanumeric string includes one of a limiting character and an instruction to send a message. The first alphanumeric string may be modified based on a result of comparing the first alphanumeric string to the second alphanumeric string, thereby altering the first alphanumeric string, and the first alphanumeric string, as modified, may be transmitted.
