Piggybacking/Impersonation

Physical access is one method used in piggybacking/impersonation. Examples include following someone in through a door with a badge reader, electronically using another's user identification and password to gain computer access, and tapping into the terminal link of a user to cause the computer to believe that both terminals are the same person.
