I've never used this product, so I can't really say if it's good or
not.  However, I have used Sandstorm's PhoneSweep war-dial software,
and it's a good product, so maybe Sandtrap is good too.

Subject: detecting wardialing


Is anyone aware of a PBX or software that can detect wardialing
attempts?
I'm thinking of something that detects fax or modem tones in a series
of
calls within a certain window of time. I understand the phone company
does
some detection of this kind of activity, but I'm wondering if there
is any
way to stop unwanted phone sweeps.
