Computer hacking

External fraud is an act committed by a third party that leads to data theft, data loss, and function disruption. People with technology skills can access (hack) the computer systems of pharmacies to steal or manipulate patient information for financial or nonfinancial reasons. For example, cell phone service provider T-Mobile experienced ongoing security problems that led to the publication of celebrity Paris Hiltons personal information and the telephone numbers of many Hollywood stars (Brian, 2005). One can only imagine the problems that could arise if patient data contained in a pharmacy s database were to be exposed, stolen, or manipulated. [Pg.498]

On the other hand, destination address translation identifies the attacker targeting packets received from the network and translates their destination IP and MAC addresses hack to the attackers . This way, the bridge can correctly forward the packets received from the network either to the victim or to the attacker. As a result, the attacker computer can access the network resources just like an authenticated computer. [Pg.1810]

From this framework, one can conclude that cost reductions for the innovative supply chain are not necessarily strategic, while those for functional products are strategic. Hacking cost and inventory from a supply chain full of innovative products can be counterproductive. In fact, we also believe that an innovative supply chain can make a functional product innovative. Starbucks and Dell are examples where extended product services turned functional products — coffee and computers — into innovative products. For Dell it was build-to-order for Starbucks it was the ambience of their stores, including music, Internet access, a wide menu, and special cups. [Pg.308]

As society becomes more dependent on computers, data security by encryption becomes more important. Data need to be available to those who use them to perform their jobs, but they must be safe from hacking and unregistered users. Encryption of computerized data and passwords affects all types of businesses, including health care providers, the government, and schools. [Pg.460]

Hacking Process of penetrating the security of other computers by using programming skills. [Pg.612]

Surveys show that, as in other areas, such as mugging and sexual assault, the fear of the crime outstrips the actuality. Furthermore, they show that crimes in which a computer is involved more often than not involve relatively small sums, and are cormnitted by dishonest employees and sub-contractors rather than by a stranger hacking into the system from the outside, all in sharp contrast to the picture portrayed in the press. But as usual, statistics shoitld not be taken just at face value. There are imdoubtedly many... [Pg.262]

Prior to 1990, when the Computer Misuse Act was enacted, it was difficult to convict anyone of computer hacking. There were two main issues firstly offences regulating the penetration of the computing system and secondly offences which dealt with the alteration or destruction of data by someone who has already gained access. The former had been the subject of greatest controversy. We shall look first at regulation of hacking by traditional offences, then at the 1990 Act. [Pg.267]

The Computer Misuse Act 1990 enshrines proposals made in the Report of the Law Commission, a document produced after extensive consultation with interested bodies on proposals made in the Law Commission s Working Paper. In their Report, the Law Commission recommended the creation of three new offences, two relating to hacking, and a third concerning the unauthorized modification of data. We shall look at the latter when we consider the issue of criminal damage. For the moment we shall concentrate solely on the offences relating to hacking. [Pg.268]
