review Questions ch 10

2. Why is it hard to estimate the extent of computer crime?

its is hard because the source and amount of crime is hard to track on the Internet, and a lot of it goes undetected and unreported.

4. What is the most common computer crime? Who commits it? what is being done to stop it?

theft of information, finical fraud and theft of passwords. Most of the people who do this are company insiders (on their own company!). the people are clerks, cashiers, programmers, computer operators and some managers. Internet security can help prevent this from happening.
