Hacked Attacked & Abused

We are living, working and playing in the digital age. It is now almost possible to live your entire life online or through technology. However, the advances and opportunities that technology has delivered have also opened up a Pandora's box of possibilities for darker deeds. Terrorists, organized criminals, fraudsters and money launderers have all jumped at the opportunities offered to them. In the meantime hackers, crackers and virus creators have tried and succeeded in subverting the online environment. Pornography, pedophilia, hate sites, grudge sites, terrorist information - it's all there in glorious detail on the Internet.

‘Hacked, Attacked and Abused’ is an in-depth exposé of this Internet underbelly. Expert author Peter Lilley gives a compelling account of the risks inherent in our reliance on technology. He provides an overview and evaluation of crime, fraud and risk in the digital age by exploring how we got where we are now, where we are going and what risks we face in the future. It is as equally relevant to business as it is to the individual, we are all customers in the brave new world of the Internet and we should all adopt and apply preventive strategies for dealing with the risks.

Peter Lilley looks at the major themes in turn:
The development of technology and the way it has impacted on our personal and business lives
Forms of attack and the use of technology to facilitate illegal activities
The Internet and the way it lends itself to abuse so readily
Information warfare: the use of technology to attack other nations and the relevance to business
The loss of privacy: what sort of information is stored on individuals, how it is used and when that becomes unethical
The practical steps users can take to manage and minimize the risks of electronic crime and fraud

‘First rule of computer security: don’t buy a computer. Second rule: if you buy one, don’t turn it on.’ - Dark Avenger, legendary virus writer
