In recent years, with the advancement of network technology, broadband users using ADSL are surging exponentially at a fast speed. However, the security problems that follow have also rapidly jumped into the eyes of consumers, the theft of ADSL accounts has been rampant. To address this problem, Beijing Netcom has launched a pilot project last year. Currently, it has promoted and completed the binding of ADSL accounts and phone numbers throughout the city, at that time, the network technology will effectively curb the problem of account theft and cut off the hacker of ADSL.
ADSL Broadband Users cannot afford it
Recently, Beijing Netcom's ADSL Broadband account was stolen in large numbers. Criminals used the default network payment feature activated by China Netcom broadband to purchase various virtual products such as broadband value-added services and game card. During the peak of account theft, the Internet can be seen everywhere to sell stolen ADSL accounts and passwords, or wholesale or retail. Clearly-listed prices are to be sold, and even worse, they are actually "volunteer teachers ", teaches the ADSL account theft tutorial.
With the health of supply and marketing channels, ADSL account Account theft has gradually become a complete and independent "food chain", while the real ADSL Broadband Users are at the bottom of this food chain, not only do you have to pay for the account used by the hacker, but you have to pay for the various value-added services and virtual goods purchased by the hacker.
Although Beijing Netcom, as a network operator, does not want to see that users' interests are damaged and the network market order is damaged by criminals, it is limited to the fact that the China Netcom ADSL system can only determine whether the Internet account is correct, however, it is not possible to identify whether the identity of a user using a valid account is true. Therefore, many consumers suffer unnecessary losses, which is also the last resort of Beijing Netcom.
Focus on core issues: telephone bundling
Because the system of Beijing Netcom only recognizes the account and password and is not bound with the telephone line, as long as the account and password are available, anyone can dial up the Internet through the ADSL account and password on any telephone line at will.
This situation gives criminals the opportunity to exploit this system vulnerability of China Netcom to steal the interests of ADSL Broadband Users, the real ADSL users not only have to wait for the unconfirmed ones to go offline to log on to the network again, but also pay for these hackers.
In other words, as long as criminals steal the ADSL account and password, they can log on to the Internet. The direct cause of this problem is that Beijing Netcom does not adopt the ADSL account and phone number binding function.
At present, the solution to ADSL password theft is still only to carry the ownership and identity card to the local business office for password initialization. during peak hours, one business office of Beijing Netcom even needs to handle nearly 200 initial password initialization services a day to help users solve the problem of ADSL account theft.
Make up for hidden dangers
In order to effectively address the increasingly rampant issue of account theft, Beijing Netcom first started a pilot project in Yanqing last winter to bind the ADSL account with the phone number, and gradually promote the operation throughout the city. Currently, the binding of the ADSL account and telephone number of Beijing Netcom has been basically completed.
Currently, the account and phone number of China Netcom ADSL users in Beijing have been fully bound. The ADSL account applied for in the future will only be used on the telephone line for this ADSL account.
After the ADSL account is bound to the phone number, even if the hacker steals the ADSL account and password, the hacker cannot log on to the Internet over other telephone lines, and no account theft occurs.
This not only effectively protects the interests of users, but also greatly reduces the labor cost of the China Netcom office.
