Abstract

This presentation explores the evolution of cyber crime and cyber security as global issues over the past decade. It examines the growth of cyber bank robbery, cyber extortion, identity theft, economic espionage, denial of service, cyber vandalism, cyber stalking and other criminal endeavors. It also sheds a harsh light on corporate and government response to these problems: technologies, organization, professional issues, awareness and education, etc. The presentation includes a compelling timeline, explores fascinating case studies and also provides real-world cyber security recommendations for governments, businesses and families.
