In the article from CNN it
reports that cyber crime is going be a huge in the near future. According to
the top FBI Director Robert Mueller cyber threats will be our greatest threat
in the united states. Though terrorist haven't launched a full scale cyber
attack anywhere, the FBI has similar methods use to fight cyber crimes that
they used after 9-11. They have dedicated a cyber squad in 56 field offices and
1000 dedicated officers working on finding terrorist, organized crime rings,
and state sponsored Cyberespionage.
Though
the article was short it makes you think about how technology has made a
enormous change in society. Who ever thought technology would cause these types
of problems in the world. Cyber crimes like financial theft, child pornography,
and cyber ware-fare are all risks that we face today! I can only imagine what
the world would have to fight against in the future. Technology has turned into
a ticking time bomb for everyone, i also feel that cyber crime will be a major
threat to the united states and also to the the world. If someone in another
country can do something catastrophic to the united states, what makes you
think someone in the united states cant do something similar to someone in
another country? With that said what if a situation happened when someone hacks
the national defense and launches bombs on another country that causes a war
between two countries. Its crazy how much technology is going to impact the
world in the next few years and its something that people in society should
really be focused on during the next few years.
