Week 4 Cybercrime

Jun 14, 2025 10:46 PM

Today, I read a story about cybercrime on the Kaspersky website. What is cybercrime? And how can you protect yourself? This is the title of the reading. The story’s perspective is that cybercrime occurs for two main reasons. One of these involves individuals or organizations committing cybercrimes using advanced techniques, many of whom are highly technically skilled. Typically, they target computers by infecting them with malware to disrupt their functionality. They might also use malware to delete or steal data. A sign that your computer has been hacked is if it slows down more than usual, overheats, or shows increased fan activity. The best way to protect against this madness is to change your passwords regularly and use a very strong password. Make sure that you always run a full system scan with reputable antivirus softwareReply to Thread
