Answer: (should include points such as): Employee theft costs U.S. businesses almost a billion dollars per week, over 40 billion dollars per year. These losses are primarily due to the misappropriation of cash and/or noncash assets by employees through various forms of fraud. Employees generally commit fraud when a permissive environment or misplaced trust exists. When inadequate internal controls exist, or if controls exist but are not enforced, employees are tempted and criminals will take action. In addition to the rogue employee acting alone, there are insiders who conspire with other insiders to form their own criminal enterprise, insiders who are recruited by outside organized crime, and outside organized criminal elements that obtain employment for the purpose of gaining the access of an insider and perpetrating their fraud. In fraud crimes involving management-level employees, average losses were higher than in lower-level employee crimes.

8.5 Essay Questions 1) How has the Internet changed the way people can be exploited?

Answer: (should include points such as): Most people victimized are women and children Victims are enticed online Internet can be used to produce, manufacture, and distribute pornography Exposure to pornography over the Internet may encourage victims to exchange pornography Promotes sexual tourism Utilize chat rooms to develop relationships Harassment Distressing incidents Page Ref: 197 Objective: Understand the nature of cyber crime victimization.

Level: Intermediate 2) How are traditional stalkers and cyberstalkers similar? How are they different?

Answer: (should include points such as): The similarities primarily involve the motivations for stalking and the demographic and relational characteristics of the offense. In essence, the stalker is motivated by a desire to get close to the victim, control the victim, or punish the victim in some way. The major difference is that while off-line stalking necessitates a closer proximity to the victim, cyberstalking can occur from across the nation or the world. Electronic communications technologies make it much easier for a cyberstalker to encourage third parties to harass and/or threaten a victim (e.g., impersonating the victim and posting inflammatory messages to bulletin boards and in chat rooms, causing viewers of that message to send threatening messages back to the victim "author"). Finally, cyberstalkers are much more likely to be brazen than off-line stalkers because of the anonymity of the Internet and the lack of close proximity.

Page Ref: 206 Objective: Describe the perpetrators of cyberstalking and exploitation via the Internet.

Level: Intermediate 3) How has stalking changed?

Answer: (should include points such as): Hate groups and domestic terror groups have mastered the art of harnessing social media, music, and even video games to spread propaganda, appealing to those who do not necessarily share their particular beliefs.

This provides an outlet for individuals who are not skilled artists but are still interested in pushing their message out to the public. Web sites like YouTube allow individuals to make animated cartoons using simple programs, though the sites carefully monitor content to reduce offensive material. However, some users repeatedly create new user profiles or channels to repost their material once it is removed from the site.

Level: Intermediate 3) Discuss the increasing role of state and local law enforcement in investigating computer crimes and how they have fared in doing so.

Answer: The number of local, state, county, and regional computer crime task forces continues to increase, largely because agencies have experienced more computer-related criminal activities within their jurisdictions, and citizens and private entities have become increasingly willing to report these activities to local law enforcement departments. At the same time, local officers may not have the capacity or understanding of computer crimes necessary to properly investigate these offenses. Higher-profile computer crimes, such as threats to critical national infrastructure systems, are rarely handled solely by local and state investigators because they often require federal expertise and resources. Despite the ever-increasing caseload of cyber crimes, there appears to be a lack of recognition and support from upper-level management within local police agencies in terms of providing the resources necessary to counter these threats. The majority of these cases receive a low priority at the local level. The fact that computer crime cases have not received the necessary recognition and support from local law enforcement administrators has created several areas in which local-level agencies must improve if computer crimes are to be effectively enforced.

Level: Difficult 2) Discuss the concepts of speed and density as it relates to storage in computers.

Answer: (should include points such as): Storage density allows manufacturers to increase the storage capacity of hard drives.

By packing more bits closer together, storage capacity has increased without the form factor (physical size) of the device increasing.

More precision means less space must be wasted between tracks of data arranged in concentric rings on the disk.

Speed is a constant goal of storage manufacturers.

By increasing the speed of the hard drive, significant speed increases can be obtained for common tasks.

The fastest part of the computer can only operate as quickly as the data and instructions can arrive.

14.5 Essay Questions 1) What is the purpose of a risk analysis and what are the parameters of the report?

Answer: (should include points such as): Project the most probable outcome Allocating available resources to address that outcome Can't interfere with the mission of the computer system Compromise, can't overwhelm the organization Can't address or foresee every vulnerability Prioritize so as not to create a 1,000 page document Provide remedies Page Ref: 362, 365-368 Objective: Discuss the major principles of risk analysis.

Level: Intermediate 2) Explain how hashing and use of a key are involved with encryption.

Answer: (should include points such as): Hashing produces a unique signature of the original data-like a fingerprint.

At the other end of the transmission, a new hash is calculated by the recipient of the data and compared to the sender's hash.

If they match, the data have not been altered.

A public key/private key system allows a user to authenticate data by matching a key-the only way to decode the data-with a well-known and publicly available key.

This form of security is only as good as the secrecy of the key, but it offers a way to authenticate without being physically present.

Page Ref: 372-375 Objective: Define encryption, and discuss its use in terms of authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality.

Level: Intermediate 3) Discuss some key techniques involved in making strong passwords.

Answer: (should include points such as): Using software programs that create passwords Onetime password generators User authentication systems Changing passwords on a regular basis Automated random pronounceable passwords Prohibiting the use of information that relates to the password creator Incorporating numbers, letters, and symbols into their passwords Page Ref: 375 Objective: Define encryption, and discuss its use in terms of authenticity, integrity, and confidentiality.
