A robbery can be<br>stealing company information or files without leaving their home. While the name stays<br>the same, the description and actions are not. The actions are still illegal such as threats online<br>equivalate to in-person threats, but tracking the offender can become more difficult. In-person<br>crimes can typically be identified easier as a facial description or physical description can be<br>given such as height or build. Online the criminals are anonymous and can create many<br>different accounts and profiles if needed to commit these acts. Many would not break into a<br>school to try and steal money. However, there are reports and data on how schools have been<br>targeted online resulting in the schools losing millions of dollars. Therefore, these different<br>attack methods have changed how we must approach these situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>The government has implemented cyber engineers to try and help because police officers are not<br>equipped with the knowledge of how to proceed with these types of criminal actions. Questions have been raised about whether cybercrimes should be grouped with physical crimes or labeled as a new type of crime due to this. Due to the hackers and threats being<br>anonymous, it can take more time, effort, and specific knowledge to catch these types of<br>criminals. It is unlikely a foreign member will come to the States just to harass one specific<br>person, but online that is not an issue. The whole world is grouped and police<br>departments on every block do not change the treatment and prevention of online violence.
