The thesis of “Computers And Crime” by Kristine Brown & Susan Hood (2002) is that the article observes several problems of computer crime. First, in 1995, there was an event where an employee using the computer system diverted a lot of money from the United States government. They stole more than 5 million dollars just using a computer. Next, technology has aided created new kinds of crime. So the internet fraud sometimes happens in our lives. For example, someone fakes a good product or company and cheat another person through the internet website. Then steal people’s money or personal information. Third, some computer criminals use viruses to harm people’s computer. Computer related crime is growing up fast because technology is developing. In addition, there are problems are difficult to stop or fighting computer crime because companies want to protect their reputation. Also police have a difficult time keeping up with technological skills. The article mentions that computers also help the police solve new crime. Finally, the author points out the data of problems that technology changed our ideas of right or wrong.
I feel that high technology computer make our life more convenient but gives people some problems. We should make a way to solve people’s problems and reduce the problem to be the lowest. In my opinion, there are three methods to control the computer crime to be less. The suggestion is that make internet law, password, firewall and copy right. First, we should have an internet law center. This law center should solve any kind of computer crime and it should include all the technology related to computer crime. In modern day era, this law center should make laws and update fast and it should faster than the new crime produce. Even though, it’s a difficult work to make law and the government should have more responsibility to reduce people’s problems.
Next, we should make password and firewall. The reason is that make sure person’s identity seriously. Especially, the government system and bank website should be careful to build firewall and prevent some hacker or viruses to break it. Also, people should be careful to check any website is real or not when you use your personal information or password. Almost 96 percent people agree the hacker behavior is wrong. Hacker usually is deliberately damaging your employer’s computer systems or data. So make password and firewall are very necessary things.
Finally, we should make copyright and legal standard then teach people know the copyright’s limit. A lot of people usually don’t know what the copyright details are. Sometimes, people are over looking or illegal copying or downloading from internet website. The law center should solve people problems that people don’t know some illegal copying knowledge.
In conclusion, there are several suggestions to reduce computer crime. Modern internet became popular and easier than before. Computer related crime is growing up fast by technology develop. We should make some good ways to decrease all of the computer crime. Finally, we should solve people’s problems that computer crime to be the lowest.
