在1986年9月的第一个星期,旧金山地区和阿帕网其他地方的一些UNIX系统被有才能的入侵者系统地侵入。我们相信它始于斯坦福:它似乎已经传播到ARPA互联网周围的许多其他计算机。入侵者经常留下重新编译的登录程序,以简化他的返回。他的目标似乎是纯粹的数字,看看他能破解多少台电脑。据我们所知,没有重大的破坏或盗窃文件,尽管给这些计算机的用户和管理人员带来了极大的不便。这些计算机大多是由一小群研究人员在没有专业管理的情况下操作的;由于没有保存任何记录,因此很难确切地说出有多少台机器被侵入。仅在斯坦福大学校园,这一数字就可能高达30至60人。其他ARPA网站也收到了类似的入侵报告。事实上,所有其他网站的管理者都要求我不要透露他们的身份,但我有9所大学、15家硅谷公司和9个阿帕网网站(包括3个政府实验室)被入侵的第一手资料。对入侵事件的分析表明,它们是由技术和人性的结合造成的,创造了一个渗透的环境
In the first weeks of September 1986, some number of UNIX” systems in the San Francisco area, and elsewhere on the ARPANET, were systematically penetrated by talented intruder(s). We believe that it began at Stanford: it seems to have spread to many other computers around the ARPA Internet. The intruder often left behind recompiled login programs to simplify his return. His goal seems to have been purely numeric, to see how many computers he could crack. We are aware of no major destruction or theft of files-although the inconvenience to users and managers of these computers was significant. Most of these computers are operated without professional management by small groups of researchers; because no records were kept, it is difficult to tell exactly how many machines were penetrated. The number could be as high as 30 to 60 on the Stanford campus alone. Similar break-ins at other ARPA Internet sites have been reported to us. Virtually all of the other site managers have asked me not to reveal their identity, but I have firsthand knowledge of break-ins at 9 universities, 15 Silicon Valley companies, and 9 ARPANET sites, including 3 government labs. An analysis of the break-ins shows that they were made possible by a combination of technology and human nature, creating an environment in which penetra-
