Abstract

An approach for securing sensitive information in communication data is provided. In an embodiment, communication data is received from an ongoing communication (e.g., phone conversation, exchange of text messages, etc.) between a user and at least one other person. Contextual input is derived based on the content of the communication data and historical data from one or more external sources. A sensitivity index score for each element (e.g., portion) of the communication data is derived based on an assessment of the contextual input. The elements of the communication data having a sensitivity index score greater than a predefined threshold value are deemed to be security sensitive and, therefore, are encoded prior to transmission to its intended recipient.
