Anyone can look around and see how much cyber technology has made an impact on the world we live in today. Technology is being used in our hospitals, for education purposes, communication purposes, and so much more. However, some people are using the power of technology in a negative way. Cybercrime is becoming a major problem as it continues to grow alongside the evolution of technology. Cybercrime can be committed in many different forms such as hacking, phishing, cyberstalking, cyber harassment, and many other more. Compared to traditional crime, cybercrime is committed through some type of technological or internet device, whereas traditional crime would be committed in person. However, cyber crime can do the same amount of damage and in some cases co do more damage than traditional crime. Cyber technology has made a major impact on the interaction between the offender and victim. Cyber crime takes away that physical interaction between the offender and victim. This usually makes it more difficult to find the offender since they are able to hide their identity much easier. This also means that victims will not only feel scared out in the physical world, but also in the digital world. 

Since we are still somewhat in the early stages of advanced technology, we are still in the process of developing strong cyber-policies as well as a strong cyber-infrastructure. Technology is still evolving and will always stay that way. The best way to go about this since we have a “short arm” of predictive knowledge is to be as secure as you possibly can. So for all businesses and organizations this means installing cybersecurity programs to provide protection. For individuals this means installing firewalls and keeping up with the latest software updates to ensure security. In the event of an attack, your computer and your information would be kept safe.
