What Are the Different Types of Cyber Crime?

There are many types of cyber crime that could endanger your online enterprise. When you have a strong online security in place, you are better protected from these threats:

  • DDOS attacks – These are used to make an online service unavailable and take the network down by overwhelming the site with traffic from a variety of sources.
  • Botnets – These are networks from compromised computers that are controlled externally by remote hackers. The remote hackers then send spam or attack other computers through these botnets.
  • Identity theft – This occurs when a criminal gains access to a user’s personal information to steal funds, access confidential information, or participate in tax or health insurance fraud.
