Recommended action for systems possibly affected by hacker attacks:

  1. Deactivate all port forwarding to the ICT system!
  2. Check the log and make sure that the logins are traceable
  3. Change the username, PIN and admin password
  4. Check whether there are newly created sub-admins, users, participants or groups and change the passwords
  5. Change passwords for public VoIP providers
  6. Check call deflection

 

Check the following points for all profiles and properties (users, participants, groups, etc.):

  1. Check the dialling privileges
  2. Check parallel call
  3. Check call deflections
  4. Check voicemail boxes, check activation of remote control and change PINs
  5. Check the deputy functions of the voicemail boxes and the registered destinations
