The war dialing started last night and has continued throught the day. They are being very noisy, staying on the line with a steady beep, beep, beep long enough to leave a voice message. The calling has occcured on two different prefixes so I am concerned my company is being targeted. Our local service provider's security and fraud team has not been able to identify a single source of the calls. We have recently done our own War-dail and feel we know all our modems are secured correctly. Any thoughts on additional steps I should be taking? thanks Phred -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own FREE Personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Attend Black Hat Briefings & Training Europe, May 12-15 in Amsterdam, the world's premier event for IT and network security experts.
