    Abstract: Users often have multiple resource (e.g., devices, accounts, authorizations, permissions, etc.) that utilize or leverage a credential that may become compromised. A stolen mobile device may allow unauthorized access to the device to make and receive calls and potentially expose other resources (e.g., emails, text messages, accounts, etc.). Maintaining all these accounts is cumbersome and error prone. Having a ledger indicating resources that are blocked is provided. Copies of the ledger are maintained by other entities and updates exchanged therebetween. As a result, parties can be quickly notified when a resource should be blocked, or unblocked, if blocking is no longer warranted.

    Abstract: Electronic conferences are a common method of conducting a meeting when the participants are not at the same location. When a conference drops a portion of the audio, such carrying speech from a speaker, participants may be excluded from the full content of the conference. By having a device associated with a speaking participant convey both audio and generated text from the speech provided by the speaking participant, a server may be able to determine that speech is missing from the audio portion and automatically insert text content. As a result, poor audio quality may be mitigated with text and omitting unwanted text when the audio quality is sufficient.

    Abstract: Electronic conference enables remote participants to obtain conference content from other devices connected as nodes on a network. A presenter may provide all audio content for a portion of the electronic conference and then individuals, associated with nodes on the network, may provide audio content during other portions, such as to ask a question to the presenter or group. Participants may “raise their hand” to request to speak. By automatically unmuting devices associated with requesters in an order different from the order in which the requests were received, devices may be unmuted to receive audio content having a particular importance or relevance to the electronic conference and thereby reduce the time spent on less relevant content.

    Abstract: The technology disclosed herein enables a call to be immediately reconnected to the same agent of a contact center after the agent has been disconnected while the caller remains connected to the contact center. A method provides determining that a first agent system, operated by a first agent of the contact center, has been disconnected from a communication session between the first agent system and a first caller system, operated by a first caller, due to a non-recoverable error. The first caller system remains connected to the contact center. The method further provides generating identification information that identifies the communication session and generating a link to join the communication session that includes the identification information. The method also provides transferring the link to a second agent system operated by the first agent. The second agent system is connected to the communication session when the second agent system follows the link.

    Abstract: Individuals often place calls on behalf of a group or collection of individuals. As provided herein, a caller may access or establish a group number to be presented to a callee. The callee then receives the call, such as by answering, caller identifier display, etc., and may wish to return the call. The callee then places a call to the group, rather than the individual who placed the call, which is then routed to members of the group. Any member of the group may then answer the call, thus avoiding issues associated with the originating caller being unavailable when any member of the group could address the purpose of the call. Additionally, status information may be automatically provided to allow group members to receive activity notification for calls to and/or from the group. For example, an indication that a call to an individual was placed on behalf of the group and, optionally, the status (e.g., answered, voicemail, etc.) of the call.

    Abstract: Placing calls in a non-disturbing manner that includes receiving, by a communication server from a caller endpoint device, a request to place a call to a called endpoint device, wherein the request comprises an indication that the called endpoint device is to be notified about the call in a non-disturbing manner. The communication server also receives from the caller endpoint device, a time period for which a user of the caller endpoint device is available to receive a callback from the called endpoint device, a context associated with the call. Then, the communication server can forward to the called endpoint device, the call, wherein the call includes the time period and the context associated with the call.
