DIAL BACK SECURITY
A computer security device tbsil ss often referred to as lacing
foolproof is the dial kook system In the ease of a dial hack
system, a computer has n dial up access numhei where users
may enter iheir user I E ls and then their passwords I hen thev
hang up or are disconnected from the computer and the very
system 1 hey j issi u;i I leci w ill call back on a p rea era ngfrj u umber
after u short period of lime The hacker cannot penetrate this
because afirn he discovers liic working 1I>; password
Combination. he cannot do anything but liung up and wail for
i he computer to en'l mu io the preriTranged number . E] is
extremely d[ffleu3i I'm- a hue Iter In receive a call at that
prejivniigiid number, unless he laps into th'cleublc-patr at the
home o t office ol the person who owriv the account anti then
uses a portable computer and modem while squatling in a

I he number il sell' is not specif ied when the rail Is it'd I luted.

these systems arc potentially vtiEncuihle. ’I he.se vul lie rabili lies

t his wasn't all B had also managed to charge outrageous
amounts in the family's phene bill. He would call their
answering machine coiled on a long si isi a rice trunk and make it
