Encrypted Data Collection for any Chatbot

Encrypted Data Collection for any Chatbot

With the proliferation of AI agents handling front line support in messaging and chat apps, the ability to collect sensitive data in a secure, compliant and automated fashion is more important than ever. SendSafely has extended its hands-free secure data collection capabilities to work with any chatbot, so no matter which AI agent you work with, your customers’ data can be protected.

Our Universal Chatbot Connector is a platform-agnostic integration tool that embeds SendSafely’s end-to-end encrypted secure file transfer capabilities into chatbot conversations. It bridges SendSafely’s encrypted Dropzone technology with any chatbot platform that meets basic technical requirements. This means AI agents can request and collect sensitive data, and then either hand off sensitive file uploads to a human agent, or process through other automated workflows.

When to use the Universal Chatbot connector

When your chatbot platform doesn’t have a pre-built SendSafely integration, the universal connector provides a standardized way to add secure file transfer capabilities. (SendSafely has native integrations for human-free, secure data collection for Intercom, Zendesk and, coming soon, Salesforce.)

The universal connector is particularly well-suited for AI-driven conversational flows that require secure document collection, like loan applications, insurance claims, or requests for medical information.

The universal connector may support human agent chat workflows, depending on your specific platform’s technical capabilities for variable storage and API access.

Technical Requirements

For successful implementation, your chatbot platform must have three essential capabilities:

1. API Integration

Ability to make API calls from within an active chat session

2. Variable storage
Capability to store session variables during conversation

3. Dynamic Updates

Ability to update conversations with API data

Additionally, you’ll need AWS permissions to deploy necessary resources including Lambda Functions, DynamoDB, SNS, API Gateway, Secrets Manager, and IAM roles

The Universal Chatbot connector is available on the SendSafely Business and Enterprise plans. For more information, contact success@sendsafely.com.
