Abstract
A computer-implemented method may associate a communication-control policy with a contact. The computer-implemented method may identify a first communication made via a first communication mechanism. The computer-implemented method may also identify a first alias associated with the first communication. The computer-implemented method may determine that the first alias is an alias of the contact. The computer-implemented method may apply the communication-control policy to the first communication, wherein the associating, the identifying the first communication, the identifying the first alias, the determining, and the applying may be performed by a communication-control computing system. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
