simultaneous multiple users on exchange email account |
|
|
We are a small shop and don’t have an IT dept. I believe we have the Exchange 2007 version.
If I am on our exchange email server through the work LAN, and logged in to my email account, will I know if a hacker is on my account at the same time with my UN and PW, logged into the server from the internet? I often log in from home or remote locations to check my email. The log in format is https:// email.company.com/exchange.
Would I see the screen change, messages pop up, etc. as the remote user moves through the account? Does one user have priority over the other?
I have noticed some messages marked as unread when I just read them. This has happened a lot lately. Also I can see the completion bar at the bottom of the screen move when I am not actively using the system.
We have no one that we have hired to monitor email traffic.
I am seeing the system slow for random times. These issues make me wonder about this. I have asked our IT contract supplier and they say it is possible but they would charge us to look into it.
I am told it may be possible to track the source of the attempted log in once the UN and PW has been changed and someone tries to gain access into the system using the old log in. Is this hard to do? What do I do with this information to find the user?
I am concerned that someone may be checking my proposals and client correspondence for some unknown reason.
Any action items I should look for would be helpful. I have changed my UN and PW already.
Perhaps someone has hacked into our system and stolen our account information with some sort of keystroke tracker or other method.
I hate to spend a lot of money tracing a problem that may not exist.
Thanks in advance. Any thoughts, help are welcome from a non IT guy.
