COMPLIANCE MECHANISM FOR MESSAGING

摘要

This disclosure describes systems, methods, and apparatus for precluding transmission of messages that breach one or more compliance or legal framework. In particular, messages, whether digital, written, or verbal, can be stopped from leaving a device on which they are created, thereby preventing non-compliant messages from reaching intermediary servers that could constitute a compliance violation even if the message never reached a recipient.

主权项

1. A method of precluding non-compliant digital messages from being transmitted from a communication device, the method comprising:
recording keystrokes on a first computing device, the keystrokes part of a digital message; identifying an end of a sequence of keystrokes, the sequence representing an idea; parsing the keystrokes into words and symbols; assigning a score to each of the words; calculating a total of the scores assigned to each of the words in the idea; determining that the total exceeds a threshold; and precluding the message from leaving the first computing device, wherein prohibited words are assigned scores equal to or greater than the threshold, such that even a single instance of a prohibited word in an idea will trigger the preventing, wherein risky words that can form prohibited ideas when combined with other risky words, are assigned scores that are less than the threshold, such that, without a prohibited word in an idea, at least two or more risky words are required in an idea to trigger the preventing.
