Foiling the fraudsters

Article Abstract:

Computer fraud and abuse continue to escalate in the 1990s. Estimates show that annual damage to industries is within the range of 400 million to 2 billion pounds sterling. As such, the need to improve computer security is an urgent matter. Protecting systems against physical breach of security requires the improvement of security measures from theft, fire and other disasters and the development of contingency plans and disaster recovery procedures. On the other hand, threats of logical security may be avoided by hiring expert individuals. Also, because deliberate breaches of computer security are increasingly being committed by employees, personnel management should be enhanced to prevent internally-generated damages. Cooperation between the police and companies should be developed to ensure that offenders are discovered, prosecuted and imprisoned to deter future fraudsters.
