With cyber war, nations are able to skip the battlefield. Gone are the days where troops line up across from each other hoping to do damage to the other. Clarke explains that people, industries, governments, companies and organizations can be possible targets and are vulnerable to these attacks. Keeping that in mind should help these targets become defensive minded and shield off attacks before they happen. As we all know, the prevention is better than the

The fourth spoke on the wheel of terrorism is “computer crime”. The use of computers can be used in a good way or can also be abused. Cyberattacks are a huge threat to our national security and technological infrastructure.

It is recommendable for the nations to have dynamic and flexible cyber security approaches and strategies that meet the new cyberspace global threats. It is worthy to note that developing a critical cyber security it is crucial to enhance an agreement and cooperation from different stakeholders.

We are facing a new threat from the cyber world which allows our enemies to attack from various parts of the world by pushing a button to inflict damage to our nation’s information technology systems. This threat is one which political figures have warned the U.S. government about for years

We are a generation that has evolved with the internet and we have seen the issues its growth has caused. It’s hard to imagine a world without smartphones, the internet, and big companies like Google or Apple anymore because we are so connected with them. But there’s a real risk when we are so dependent on them, because simply using these products requires a lot of trust. Many people may think an internet attack will never happen to them, but too many incidents have occurred for this notion to

As Renda described in his cybersecurity research, “Cybersecurity is now a leading concern for major economies”. Threats have risen as the Internet has become a critical infrastructure for the global economy. China, the country with the most population in the world, cannot be vulnerable for hackers to attack. The impact of cyberattacks could be unimaginable since human beings have not experienced this sort of high-technology attack, which could be characterized as a digital world war three. The magnitude of the cyber attack could be human extinctions since the cyber terrorists are very likely to target nuclear weapons and destroy the whole world. Also, a successful attack without any blocking from firewall would take milliseconds, couldn’t be stopped, and escalates, because the time lag between collecting information and react is quite short. The regulation and restrictions on Internet is the only way to avoid the risk of nuclear war. The universal correlation of globalization and Internet controls could be characterized as the further the Internet could reach, the more strict the Internet censorship will be. This correlation could be seen from all around the world. For example, according to Renda’s research, the Obama administration, which has most recently championed Internet freedom initiatives abroad, is said to be cooperating with private telecoms

The United States remains in the forefront of cyber security. In my opinion, the government is capable of dealing with terroristic cyber-attacks and is aware of the current technological advancements, which could compromise their defense. The Secretary of defense, in 2009, created the U.S. Cyber Command department to assist in the defense of our nation (Alexander 21). A strong cyber defense provides the essential assurance for the government and private sector to operate securely. The United States government is actively countering these cyber-attacks, since very few have been

India is one of those countries who have implemented cyber law. In year 2000, India came with a law in cyber space called Information Technology Act, 2000, which was later amended in 2008. As cyber crimes do not have geographical boundaries, therefore to fight against it we need a uniform law, and proper implementation of it.

The research paper will take an in-depth view of the current cyber threat and will explore the current efforts taken by the United States in combating the rapidly growing cyber threat. The research conducted will revolve around recent piece of legislation that are said to be the answer to combating cyber-crime. This paper will also look at past efforts and explore their failure and compare with the new piece of legislation to see if it will actually be effective. There are many cyber security techniques which have been implemented in the attempt to thwart the threat and have failed, what makes this approach different.

The number of significant computer security breaches around the globe is continuously growing. Typically, at least once a month. a major news story is published about an extensive data breach or a company being hacked. Many organizations are being compromised by means of software vulnerabilities, distributed denial of service attacks, and in many cases their own employees. By the end of 2015 over 4.9 billion devices will be connected to the internet and any one of them could be susceptible to an unknown number of exploits allowing an attacker access into the device (Gartner, Inc.). There are several factors contributing to the recent increase in cyber crimes and even though numerous companies have already fallen victim to them, there are sure to be more.

This paper presents information regarding cybercrimes and its types and how does it impacts organization both on economic and social front in addition to some of the existing solutions to prevent the users/ organization from cybercrimes and it also suggests some new ideas that can be considered as a preventive measure from cybercrime and it also include cyber-crime against women in India. Primary motive behind this research is that bring awareness amongst women in India. Make them understand that how cybercrime can affect their life. What are the various ways of cybercrime against women? What kind of prevention techniques available you will find in this research paper.

Prevalent to the current trend now is the dependency of the society on Information technology and communication systems. Every aspect of human life is one way or the other linked and controlled by information technology tools. The importance of information technology cannot be over emphasized as its unavailability could lead to a form of disaster or the other. Pivotal infrastructures like finance, healthcare, education and security are driven by information technology. However, information technology and its benefits are accompanied by vulnerabilities and risks that can be exploited by people with the necessary technical skills. Individuals like ‘Hackers’ and ‘Cyber Terrorist’ can cause disruption to information systems, commit financial fraud and also attack computers and networks. These attacks and disruptions could result to violence against people and properties. In some cases, death, serious injuries and severe economic loss could occur as a result of these attacks.

Governments, organizations and companies co-operate to secure cyber space. In fact, the prevention of cyber criminal activities is the most critical aspect in the fight against cyber crime. It’s mainly based on the concepts of awareness and information sharing. A proper security posture is the best defence against cyber crime (Paganini, Perluigi, 2014)

With the advent of what many refer to as the internet age, there have been numerous developments in the world as we know it and as time continues to pass, the developments keep on coming thick and fast. Over time we have arrived to an age where the use of computers and networks related to these computers has almost become commonplace. The advantages and benefits that can be drawn from these developments have been many and most of them have been welcome. Industries have been created, new markets have been created and the overall outlook could not be clearer. Simply put, the future looks bright as far as developments in the technological industry is concerned (Creery 215). However, with the massive improvements in the world of technology, the developments, the new and improved ways of doing things there has also come new vulnerabilities and problems. In this paper, I will analyze the different cyber threats that we face and highlight the factors that one ought to consider when developing cyber security policies.

India’s infrastructure as a whole ranks high amongst many countries around the world. According to the India Infra Guru, India was ranked 50 among 127 countries for their “network readiness.” The IT growth rate is 35%, only second behind China. India also ranks very high in roads, power, and aviation (India Infra
