Verba provides the ability to mask CID in the service logs and on the user interface. If CID masking is used, the technical staff can access to the GUI and to the logs without the access to sensitive information. In case of the log masking, it means replacement to a hash, so the corresponding numbers still can be found without revealing the actual numbers.

The CID masking on the GUI applies to the following:

  • Everything under the Conversations menu
  • Phone service
  • Mobile interface

and doesn't apply to the following:

  • Quality Management
  • Reporting
  • System configuration and media files
