Abstract

La présente invention se rapporte à un procédé destiné à filtrer des communications téléphoniques entre un dispositif appelant et un dispositif appelé. Le dispositif appelé est connecté pour une communication à un fournisseur de services de communication. Le procédé selon l'invention comprend les étapes consistant : à déterminer qu'une demande, reçue d'un dispositif appelant ayant un numéro d'appelant, a pour fonction d'établir une communication téléphonique avec un dispositif appelé dans un mode caché ; à générer un identifiant chiffré, l'identifiant chiffré reliant le numéro d'appelant d'une demande en mode caché à une clé de chiffrement, ladite clé de chiffrement étant attribuée de façon unique au dispositif appelé ; à transmettre la demande de communication téléphonique sur le réseau en vue de sa réception par le dispositif appelé au moyen dudit identifiant chiffré ; et à établir la communication téléphonique entre le dispositif appelant et le dispositif appelé en réponse à la réception, depuis le dispositif appelé, d'une autorisation pour ledit identifiant chiffré.
