Abstract: Methods and systems provide for providing a virtual background within a communication session using dynamic chroma key reframing. In one embodiment, a method displays a user interface including at least one video feed corresponding to a participant of the communication session. The method receives a request to enable a selected or provided virtual background using chroma keying. The method then determines a background layer of the video feed. The method also determines edges for the background layer. Next, the method crops and reframes the video feed around the edges of the background layer. The method then removes the background layer from the video feed, and adds the selected or provided virtual background to the background layer of the video feed. Finally, the method displays the video feed within the communication session.

Abstract: A communication is received from a telephone number of a sender. The communication is directed to a recipient. A trust level associated with the telephone number is determined to be other than a high trust level. Based on the trust level being other than the high trust level, a number of challenges to transmit to the sender is determined based on the trust level. Determining whether to route the communication to the recipient is based on whether respective successful responses to the challenges are received from the sender.
