Remember when you used to be able to go to sleep at night with your front door unlocked? Back then, everyone trusted everyone else, and nobody would dream of breaching that trust.

But things are different these days. You wouldn't think of NOT locking up before bedtime. And that's how you have to look at your company's telecommunications. For instance, many companies have DISA (Direct Inward System Access) on their phone system, and they leave it on day and night. It makes it easier to call in to the office to pick up or send messages, or to get an outbound line to make remote long distance calls. But it also makes it easier for hackers to have the same convenient remote access. These code-breaking experts then sell this valuable information on the black market, and that could cost the typical victim tens of thousands of dollars in phone service for which service providers will hold them responsible.

Small businesses are just as vulnerable as larger firms, so stay alert for the following red flags:

• Your phone bills show multiple attempts to access your toll-free lines
• Your phone system logs multiple denials of attempts using incorrect passwords
• All attempts are made in the middle of the night

You've heard that before, but it's also just as true when it comes to local and long distance business plans. Unlimited calls for one flat rate is fine when it comes to residential service, but it's not always what it seems for business. If it looks too good to be true, do two things: Stop! and call Cory.
