and installed a dialling program which enabled Bedworth to use the FT's account with British Telecom to access other systems. Bedworth claimed to have used a 'back door' into the FT computer which had been put into the system for the convenience of engineers and yet had not been removed before the system was issued. This enabled Bedworth to circumvent existing password controls. Bedworth's defending council suggested that the existence of such back doors meant that the FT's system was 'a hacker's dream'. The trial continues.
