Your Responsibility for Your System’s Security

Toll fraud is the unauthorized use of your telecommunications system by an unauthorized party, for example, persons other than your company’s employees, agents, subcontractors, or persons working on your company’s behalf. Note that there may be a risk of toll fraud associated with your telecommunications system and, if toll fraud occurs, it can result in substantial additional charges for your telecommunications services. You and your system manager are responsible for the security of your system, such as programming and configuring your equipment to prevent unauthorized use. The system manager is also responsible for reading all installation, instruction, and system administration documents provided with this product in order to fully understand the features that can introduce risk of toll fraud and the steps that can be taken to reduce that risk. Lucent Technologies does not warrant that this product is immune from or will prevent unauthorized use of common-carrier telecommunication services or facilities accessed through or connected to it. Lucent Technologies will not be responsible for any charges that result from such unauthorized use.

Lucent Technologies Fraud Intervention

If you suspect that you are being victimized by toll fraud and you need technical support or assistance, call the Lucent Technologies National Customer Care Center at 1 800 643-2353.

Customer Support Information

Security of Your System: Preventing Toll Fraud

As a customer of new telephone equipment, you should be aware that there is an increasing problem of telephone toll fraud. Telephone toll fraud can occur in many forms, despite the numerous efforts of telephone companies and telephone equipment manufacturers to control it. Some individuals use electronic devices to prevent or falsify records of these calls. Others charge calls to someone else’s number by illegally using lost or stolen calling cards, billing innocent parties, clipping on to someone else’s line, or breaking into someone else’s telephone equipment physically or electronically. In certain instances, unauthorized individuals make connections to the telephone network through the use of remote access features.

Common carriers are required by law to collect their tariffed charges. While these charges are fraudulent charges made by persons with criminal intent, applicable tariffs state that the customer of record is responsible for payment of all long-distance or other network charges. Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges and will not make any allowance or give any credit for charges that result from unauthorized access.

To minimize the risk of unauthorized access to your DEFINITY Extender 1100 System:

■

When possible, restrict the off-network capability of offpremises callers, using calling restrictions, Facility Restriction Levels, and Disallowed List capabilities.

■

When possible, block out-of-hours calling through Time-of-Day Routing.

■

Frequently monitor system call detail reports for quicker detection of any unauthorized or abnormal calling patterns.

■

Limit Outcalling to persons on a need-to-have basis.

Customer Support Information

The DEFINITY Extender 1100 System, through proper administration, can help you reduce the risk of unauthorized persons gaining access to the network. However, telephone numbers and authorization codes can be compromised when overheard in a public location, lost through theft of a wallet or purse containing access information, or when treated carelessly (writing codes on a piece of paper and improperly discarding them).

Additionally, hackers may use a computer to dial an access code and then publish the information to other hackers. Substantial charges can accumulate quickly. It is your responsibility to take appropriate steps to implement the features properly, to evaluate and administer the various restriction levels, and to protect and carefully distribute access codes.

Under applicable tariffs, you will be responsible for payment of toll charges. Lucent Technologies cannot be responsible for such charges and will not make any allowance or give any credit resulting from unauthorized access.

Lucent Technologies Fraud Intervention

If you suspect you are being victimized by toll fraud and you need technical support or assistance contact your Lucent Technologies authorized representative, or in the USA, call the Lucent Technologies National Customer Care Center at 1 800 242-2121.
