War dialers

As I said they are MOSTLY obsolete. If you have a specific target you are looking for dial-up access to,thats one thing but the good old days of wardialing an entire exchange are over. And non-sequential war-dialing is not new, it still doesnt stop people from calling back as your modem plows through hundreds of numbers an hour this starts to become a real inconvienence to the would-be wardialer. One of cool ones was called Code Thief Deluxe people used to use that would not only log numbers with carriers but could be used to hack PBX's and calling cards using random #'s or templates and could be configured to do all sorts of stuff. If someone is really interested I might be able find a copy on floppy somewhere but its pretty dated stuff, still....its a neat little piece of hacking history.

I agree with you. For us they are mostly obsolete. But let me ask you this. As far as that goes let me ask you all this. How many of you have every answered the phone, but nobody was there? Somewhere out there there is a machine that "war dials" if you will. Except they aren't searching for modems, No they are now searching for active phone lines. When you say hello, your number gets added to a list of active numbers that is later sold. Then you get bothered by some clown that wants to sell you an umbrella you can use indoors, when all you wanna do is eat your tv dinner.

Yet we're the criminals.

You've never heard of video phones? Of course you can talk to peaple and stuff over a broad band connection... of course this is nothing like picking up normal phones & calling... and the main problem here is the services that help make it all possable. As far as wardailing goes... you mean your actually that bored and have enought money to try stuff like this from your house?

In almost every vulerability assesment I have done or been on the recieving end of; there is always a modem turned on someplace in the network. If you want to really lock up the system, check the phone lines. There are more ways in than on a TCP/IP connection connected to DSL, or Fame Relay, etc. How many of your fax machines are connected to PCs? How many people have brought in USB modems to bypass network security measures??? It's alarming.

To feed the paranoia, how many times in anyone's life do you pick up the phone and no one is there? Or you hear a couple of beeps and then click. Is there a glitch in the phone switch or did an ex-gf call and hang up???? Who knows.... :)
