    Abstract: Methods and systems for facilitating a communication session receive a sound signal and determine at least one contributing source to the received sound signal from among a plurality of communication endpoints, wherein each respective communication endpoint of the plurality of communication endpoints is associated with a corresponding participant in the communication session and includes a microphone and loudspeaker. Based on a determination of multiple communication endpoints being co-located, one or more embodiments perform at least one of processing the received sound signal by selectively altering the received sound signal, or initiating an instruction to inhibit further contribution, to the sound signal, from at least one of the co-located multiple communication endpoints.

    Abstract: In one of its aspects the technology disclosed herein concerns an Internet Protocol (IP) telephony communication system (20) comprising a location server (150(13)) and a call server (52). The location server (150(13)) is configured to obtain a first virtual identifier associated with a first telephony visit associated with a customer account to a first physical location and to obtain a second virtual identifier associated with a second telephony visit associated with the customer account to a second physical location. The location server (150(13)) is configured to obtain the first virtual identifier and the second virtual identifier in coordination with an emergency answering service (58). The call server (52) is configured to provide the emergency answering service (58) with an appropriate one of the first virtual identifier and the second virtual identifier in accordance with whichever of the first physical location and the second location is an emergency location from which an emergency call associated with the customer account is placed.

    Abstract: A system and method are disclosed herein for providing mitigation of fraud in a hosted messaging service while having minimal impact on authorized messaging users. The method includes a system for detecting potential fraud based on multiple and configurable fraud indicators as well as historical data, which can be customized for individual users or groups. The system can terminate in-process messages that are potentially fraudulent and reset the network access credentials for the affected user accounts or devices that have been potentially compromised. The system uses historical data to block further messages from the compromised user accounts or devices to specific destination addresses where the presumed fraudulent messaging activity was directed. In a further aspect, the system and method can automatically reset the network access credentials for authorized users with minimal downtime.

    Abstract: A system for registering an individual's biometric data and then later verifying the identity of the individual using the previously registered biometric data makes use of either an audio communications channel or a messaging channel, both of which are accessed via an application programming interface (API). In some instances, spoken audio input is received from the individual and the spoken audio input is used to generate a voice print for the individual. In other instances, the biometric data could be image-based, such as facial images or an image of an individual's iris.
