Leading computer crime-prevention expert Donn Parker argues in this compelling and often alarming book that current approaches to preventing computer crime are dangerously simplistic and are not working. Focusing too much on protecting the privacy of information, these approaches fail to address other dangerous threats to businesses. Current security measures are only designed to protect against the loss of privacy. Parker presents a valuable new framework for understanding a greatly expanded list of criminal threats, describing proven countermeasures and discussing actual crime cases. Boldly critiquing many prominent business and government figures for failing to establish effective prevention tactics, this book pulls no punches in its drive to improve virtual security.
DONN B. PARKER has written numerous books and articles on computer crime. The world's most listened-to cybercrime expert, he has been featured in articles appearing in newspapers and magazines ranging from PC Magazine to People and has appeared on 60 Minutes, 20/20, and Nova.
