salami attack An attack on a computer network which involves the intruder
siphoning off small amounts of money from a file and placing them in another
file that he or she can access; for example, a file that holds their bank account
details . A typical salami attack would add a small amount to a debit which the
account holder would not check, such as a debit which represented a service
charge . This small increase in debit (often a few pence or a few cents) would
then be credited to the perpetrator 's bank account. An unsophisticated banking
system which just checked that debits and credits matched would be unable to
detect this type of fraud . The name ‘salami attack ’ comes from the fact that
salami is cut into into very thin slices. It is also known as salami shaving.
