Blog12: Isreal Police To Tackle Cyber Crime With New Unit
"Sixty-person unit will be funded by Treasury; police inspector identifies cyber crime as issue that threatens whole world. Israel Police Insp.-Gen. Yohanan Danino on Monday announced the creation of a 60-person unit to tackle cyber crime that will be funded with assistance from the Treasury. Speaking at the annual International Conference on homeland security in Tel Aviv, Danino said that he participated in an Interpol conference in Rome last week in which cyber crime was identified as an issue that threatens the whole world." There has been a rise on online attacks in the region that is said to be originated from Israel. Terrorist groups and organized crimes are very similar in a way they both develop from local organizations and expand to global organizations.
As you read on in the article you will see that to make attacks or threats over the Internet is also a crime as well. It would be classified as a crime called, Cybercrime. A cybercrime as the web definition says crime committed using a computer and the Internet to steal a person's identity or sell contraband or stalk victims or disrupt operations with malevolent programs. This is an act of crime that can only be controlled by government. No one exactly knows what goes on in peoples houses, so how could they possibly know what people do or say or act over the Internet but with the help of government. Government would have to make a stand on this crime because cybercrime isn't exactly easy to detect, however it is a crime just as any other crime. it is too, a global issue as stated in the article. There are many crimes that are crimes that people are not aware of. Ive stated that in a blog once before. Including facebook and twitter. It doesn't have to be international, it can very well be national. It can very well be a crime to someone who lives on your block. In this article however its a big thing. Its not just a friend to friend thing. This is definitely a global problem.
