2) Why is it hard to estimate the extent of computer crime?
- We can't really estimate how many people commit computer crimes or even how far the computer crimes go because some people commit computer crimes without even knowing it. Some do it intentionally, but even then not all crimes are recorded or dectected. Therefore, we don't know for sure, nor can we estimate.
4) What is the most common computer crime?
- Software Piracy. It is a violation of intellectual property laws.
Who commits it?
- The crime itself is committed by millions of people, even if they don't realize they're doing it, but it can also be committed by young people who are smart with computers (hackers). But even then, hackers are responsible for only a small fraction of computer crimes. The computer criminal is usually someone who is trusted with personal things and has knowledge of the computer system.
What is being done to stop it?
- Because of all the computer crimes, many organizations developed a new security techniques to protect their system. (i.e. keys, scanners, badges, etc.)
