Abstract
A device can receive a call from a calling party device to a called party device, and can determine caller information based on the call from the calling party device. The device can determine that the caller information satisfies a criterion, and can modify the caller information to create modified caller information, the caller information being modified based on the caller information satisfying the criterion. The device can compare the modified caller information to a data structure that includes information associated with multiple call handling decisions. The device can identify a call handling decision, of the multiple call handling decisions, based on comparing the modified caller information to the data structure that includes the plurality of call handling decisions, and can cause the call handling decision to be implemented.
