Security of System?

Hi,
Is it possible to hack simplisafe? The usb slot on the base station scares me. Even 128 bit encryption can be broken in several hours by a proper computer.
Can somebody plug in a USB device and somehow download their own settings into the system?
Say a simpli safe hacker friend or guest knows you keep valuables and/or cash in the house, is over and has access to your house and base station?

If you've ever watched a good heist film (Ocean's 11, the Italian Job...) you know that anything is *possible*. But it's not very likely. You can't just hook up a computer to the Base Station USB and start hacking away at it... and even if you have a super-techy friend/guest with unencumbered access to your house while the alarm system is off, and they can figure out how to get connected to it, there are security precautions in place, and notification to the dispatch center in the event tampering is detected.
