Abstract
One example method of operation may include one or more of identifying an incoming call via a communication processing device, terminating the incoming call at a call management device, identifying one or more caller attributes received with the incoming call, comparing the one or more caller attributes to one or more call recipient preferences stored in a call recipient profile, and transmitting a notification, via the call management device, to a call recipient device based on the one or more caller attributes and the one or more call recipient preferences.
Claims17
A method comprising
- identifying an incoming call via a communication processing device that is terminated at a call management device;
- transmitting a notification, via the call management device to a call recipient device, while the incoming call is active, as a first type when the incoming call is trusted and a second type when the incoming call is untrusted;
- determining one or more caller attributes of the incoming call by identifying a known caller identity from a trusted list of callers or an untrusted list of callers, wherein the one or more caller attributes comprise one or more of a caller identification name (CNAM) or an enhanced caller identification name (ECNAM);
- and
- wherein the notification is transmitted as the first type of notification identified from one or more call recipient preferences.
An apparatus comprising
- a processor configured to
- identify an incoming call via a communication processing device that is terminated at a call management device;
- and
- a transmitter configured to transmit a notification, via the call management device, to a call recipient device, while the incoming call is active, as a first type when the incoming call is trusted and a second type when the incoming call is untrusted;
- wherein the processor is further configured to determine one or more caller attributes of the incoming call by ana identification of a known caller identity from a trusted list of callers or an untrusted list of callers, wherein the one or more caller attributes comprise one or more of a caller identification name (CNAM) or an enhanced caller identification name (ECNAM);
- and
- wherein the notification is transmitted as the first type of notification identified from one or more call recipient preferences.
A non-transitory computer readable storage medium configured to store instructions that when executed cause a processor to perform:
- identifying an incoming call via a communication processing device that is terminated at a call management device;
- and
- transmitting a notification, via the call management device, to a call recipient device while the incoming call is active, as a first type when the incoming call is trusted and a second type when the incoming call is untrusted;
- determining one or more caller attributes of the incoming call by identifying a known caller identity from a trusted list of callers or an untrusted list of callers, wherein the one or more caller attributes comprise one or more of a caller identification name (CNAM) or an enhanced caller identification name (ECNAM);
- and
- wherein the notification is transmitted as the first type of notification identified from one or more call recipient preferences.
