Claims18
A method for filtering data originating from at least one device, comprising the steps of:
- retrieving data from at least one network element corresponding to a network, wherein the data was sent over the network by the at least one device, the data was received at the at least one network element;
- analyzing the data to determine a presence of one or more keywords or key phrases in the data received;
- determining whether to perform filtering of the data based on analyzing the data;
- and
- filtering the data according to at least one filter, wherein the filtering includes filtering any calls to the at least one device from at least one telephone number and filtering access to at least one website.
A method for blocking data originating from at least one device, comprising the steps of:
- retrieving data from at least one network element corresponding to a network, wherein the data was sent over the network by the at least one device, the data was received at the at least one network element;
- analyzing the data to determine a presence of one or more keywords or key phrases in the data received;
- determining whether to block the data based on analyzing the data;
- and
- blocking the data, wherein the blocking includes blocking any calls to the at least one device from at least one telephone number and blocking access to at least one website.
A method for altering data originating from at least one device, comprising:
- retrieving data from at least one network element corresponding to a network, wherein the data was sent over the network by the at least one device, the data was received at the at least one network element;
- analyzing the data to determine an intended recipient of the data received and an identity of a sender;
- determining whether to block or filter the data based on analyzing the data;
- and
- performing at least one of:
