Intuity AUDIX Traffic Reports
The Intuity AUDIX system tracks traffic data over various timespans. Reviewing
these reports on a regular basis helps to establish traffic trends. If increased
activity or unusual usage patterns occur, such as heavy call volume on ports
assigned to outcalling, they can be investigated immediately. In addition, the
AUDIX Data Acquisition Package (ADAP) uses an external PC (running MS-DOS)
to provide extended storage and analysis capabilities for the traffic data. You can
also use the AUDIX Administration Log and Activity Log to monitor usage and
investigate possible break-in attempts.
AT&T’s Statement of Direction
The telecommunications industry is faced with a significant and growing problem
of theft of customer services. To aid in combating these crimes, AT&T intends to
strengthen relationships with its customers and its support of law enforcement
officials in apprehending and successfully prosecuting those responsible.
No telecommunications system can be entirely free from risk of unauthorized
use. But diligent attention to system management and to security can reduce that
risk considerably. Often a tradeoff is required between reduced risk and ease of
use and flexibility. Customers who use and administer their systems make this
tradeoff decision. They know best how to tailor the system to meet their unique
needs and, necessarily, are in the best position to protect the system from
unauthorized use.
Because the customer has ultimate control over the configuration and use of
AT&T services and products it purchases, the customer properly bears
responsibility for fraudulent uses of those services and products.
To help customers use and manage their systems in light of the tradeoff
decisions they make and to ensure the greatest security possible, AT&T commits
to the following:
■ AT&T products and services will offer the widest range of options available
in the industry to help customers secure their communications systems in
ways consistent with their telecommunications needs.
■ AT&T is committed to develop and offer services that, for a fee, reduce or
eliminate customer liability for PBX toll fraud, provided the customer
implements prescribed security requirements in its telecommunications
systems.
■ AT&T’s product and service literature, marketing information and
contractual documents will address, wherever practical, the security
features of our offerings and their limitations, and the responsibility our
customers have for preventing fraudulent use of their AT&T products and
services.
