prairieFyre Software, a provider of contact center solutions, has created a reporting tool that takes a table of data and encrypts it in chart form. The original numbers and trends are virtually unrecoverable. Congratulations, prairieFyre, for this exciting new approach. This may be patentable, but I’m afraid there is prior art.

    Talk about a market opportunity!
