This doesn't mean dial up access is safe. An intruder is able to enter your computer through open and accessible ports. This means you have to make sure you don't have any unnecessary open ports on your computer and secure the ones that have to be open (due to services you need to run). If you make sure all your ports are closed or hidden, the length of time you are on line becomes irrelevant. |
