Virtual Crimes – Real Damages:
Challenges Posed By Cybercrimes in the U.S. and Efforts to Combat Cybercriminals
From the Virginia Journal of Law and Technology web site:
Cybercrime. We hear about it everywhere, whether it be Wikileaks “hacktivists” disrupting major corporate websites, China-based cyber-spies cracking into top secret government files, or enterprising thieves who troll the internet and ATM locations for unsuspecting consumers and empty bank accounts into their own pockets. Who are these people? What are their methods for attacking businesses and government?
Topics of discussion for this March 3 event include profiling cybercriminals, an analysis of the various methods used by cybercriminals, the state and federal responses to cybercrime, and a “Best Practices” presentation suitable for both business and government implementation in order to protect confidential client data and escape potential ethical issues.
