Learning Objectives
After this lecture, you should be able to complete the following Learning Outcome
17.7
Understand the profile of the
computer crime suspect.
17.7
The Profile!
Age
Most perpetrators are young and were educated in colleges and universities
where computer attacks are common and sometimes condoned as
“educational activity.”
17.7
The Profile!
Skills and
knowledge
Most suspects are among the most skilled and
higher-performing technologists. This is seen, in particular, in organizations
in which a worker is overqualified for the work he or she is doing.
17.7
The Profile!
Positions of
trust
In most cases, perpetrators perform their acts while
working at their jobs. Investigators should anticipate that vulnerabilities
identified will usually result in the most qualified person taking advantage
of them.
17.7
The Profile!
Assistance
Perpetrators in many types of computer crime have been
known to need assistance. This is because computer crimes require more
knowledge and access than one person usually possesses.
17.7
The Profile!
Differential
association
Frequently, people working together may encourage
each other to engage in unauthorized acts that escalate into serious
crimes.
17.7
The Profile!
Robin Hood
syndrome
Most computer crime perpetrators interviewed in
the study differentiated between harming people and organizations, the latter
of which was easily condoned.
In addition, they rationalized that they
were only harming a computer and not causing any loss to people or
organizations.
