Enforcing strong password security
Password security is crucial in preventing your company from being victimized by toll fraud.
Unauthorized users who gain privileged access to your phone system can place outbound long
distance or international calls that get charged to you. In 99.9% of cases, access is gained
through insecure (easy-to-guess) passwords. By making your passwords more secure, you can
dramatically increase the security of your Wave system against toll fraud. For more information
about making your system secure, see Appendix A.
Recommended minimum password security settings
Important: The following minimum password security settings are recommended. Starting with
Wave ISM 1.5 SP2, these are the default settings for all new installations. On all existing Wave
Servers, it is highly recommended that you manually upgrade password security settings to
these minimum values.
