<div><p>This topic discusses how to change signon error messages to discourage hackers who are trying to break into a system.</p>
<p>Hackers like to know when they are making progress toward breaking into a system. When an error message on the Sign On display says Password not correct, the hacker can assume that the user ID is correct. You can frustrate the hacker by using the Change Message Description (CHGMSGD) command to change the text for two signon error messages. The table shows the recommended text.</p>
