Abstract

Novel tools and techniques are provided for lawfully intercepting communications. In some embodiments, a lawful intercept application might be provided on a cloud computing system. The lawful intercept application might include an application programming interface ('API') to exchange data with a plurality of different communication building blocks of different types. Communication intercept data associated with a particular communication between a lawful intercept subject and other parties may be received with the lawful intercept application. The communication intercept data may then be provided from a delivery function of the lawful intercept application to a collection function. In some cases, the collection function might be part of the lawful intercept application, might be located at a government facility separate from the cloud computing system, or might be two collection functions, one of which is part of the lawful intercept application and the other of which is located at the government facility.
