TECHNOLOGY: A FRIEND OR A FOE?
Cybercrime has been a fast-growing area of crime since the beginning of the digital age. Few criminals can resist taking part in illegal activities thanks to the anonymity of the Internet. For that reason, more than half of the people and organisations using the Internet meet cyber threats. We have prepared a survey report to highlight the severity of the situation worldwide. The information below summarises statistics compiled from different surveys made around the globe.
Getting the Picture
Cybercrime is globally the second most reported crime. In the UK, for example, cybercrime makes up more than 50 per cent of all crimes in direct proportion to the total number. It is found that 8 per cent of malicious email attachments contain files automating tasks which are independent of the users’ will. Another point worth considering is that most users might face identity theft whenever they want to download files to their PCs from an unknown source. These files are generally malware that intends to damage the computer system. Apart from PCs, many incidents of cybercrime now happen on mobile platforms. Six in ten online frauds are committed via mobile applications. Speaking of smartphones, smart homes also fall victim to hackers’ attacks, most of which occur in China, the US, and the UK.
Users’ Viewpoints and Ways of Protection
Because cybercriminals seek out new victims every day, effective protection against data theft is a necessity. According to a survey conducted in the United Arab Emirates, more than half of the millennials experience at least one incidence of cybercrime however hard they try to protect themselves. In another survey conducted, sixty- seven per cent of the people interviewed in twenty-one countries are aware of how important the security of account information is. However, many still show risky behaviours and share their passwords. A further 33 per cent have at least one unprotected device, which is vulnerable to malware or viruses. Besides, many people interviewed believe that home devices with an Internet connection enable hackers to steal data easily.
Conclusion and Recommendations
To summarise, criminals are always waiting out there to trap whoever they encounter in cyberspace. Consequently, it is necessary for users to be careful about the way they utilise the Internet. In the light of the survey results, our recommendations are as follows:
• Whichever device you use, always install some antivirus software; there are many free or paid programs.
• Do not ignore security updates; old versions of antivirus programs make your computer open to attacks.
• Use unique and strong passwords containing symbols, numbers, and letters.
