Chapter 8
The world of IT

Solution:
Computer crime

The number of computers and computer networks has grown enormously over the
past few years. Consequently, there has been an increased opportunity for computer
crime. For example, more people are using their computers to buy things online, so
criminals have more chances to steal things such as credit card numbers. One result
of the increase in cybercrime is that organizations such as banks employ IT experts
to make their networks secure. However, this has led to criminals hiring experts to
break these systems. The need for greater online security is growing rapidly and, as
a result, computer manufacturers have to develop better systems to protect users.
