Motive and Cybercrime<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below I attempt to rank the Individual Motives from our Module 5 Lecture Powerpoint from the most sense to the least sense from my point of view.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Multiple Reasons: I rank this motive number one because it can pull together several other motives and I think that makes it most realistic as human beings often have more than one motivation for anything and so committing cybercrime would be no different.  For example the article itself mentions money, recognition and ego but any of the seven motives could apply.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. For Money: I think many people will do nefarious or morally questionable things for monetary gain so this would be second on my list.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  3. Political: We see more and more by the day how polarized the world has become in terms of politics and a \u201cus versus them\u201d mentality that would make an easy justification for someone to commit a cybercrime for the betterment of their cause.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  4. Revenge: Much like money and political ideology, revenge can be a powerful motivator and can cause a person to lose track of their better judgment so I think this would be a strong possible motive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  5. Recognition: As mentioned in one of the articles ego is a motivator for many criminals so recognition and notoriety could easily sway someone to commit a cybercrime.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  6. Entertainment: I don\u2019t find this to be a likely motive although their have been some cases where this has been the stated motive but I feel like those are the outliers and not the norm for many potential cybercriminals.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  7. Boredom: This is the least plausible motive for me because I can think of a million different things to do if someone is bored before I would get to commit cybercrimes. <\/li>\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
