2- Why is it hard to estimate the extent of computer crime?
Many computer crimes go undetected. Among those that are detected, many go unreported because businesses fear that they will lose more money from the negative publicity generated, than from the actual crime. The crime might also be covered up.
4- What is the most common computer crime? Who commits it? What is being done to stop it?
Theft is the most common computer crime. Computers are used to steal money, informations, goods, and computer resources. Criminals may steal the actual computer, or the identity of the person who owns it. The people who commit these crimes are usually trusted employees who discover a loophole and get tempted and have problems that motivate them to act on these temptations.
