SYNOPSIS: "Computer crime costs American business at least $1 billion a year and could be as high as $10 billion per year."--The American Bar Association To appreciate the extent to which human factors play in computer crime, we have to be aware of its role in crime deterrence, prevention, detection, and risk assessment on the physical, hardware, software, and personnel security levels. Most DP installations have spent thousands and hundreds of thousands of dollars to secure their computer hardware and software, yet these two inanimate objects do not commit crimes, people do! This does not mean to imply that proper security measures should not be taken with hardware and software. Nevertheless, the human factor--an element often ignored by management and neglected by high technology technicians--is seldom considered in every aspect of computer security. The examples presented within this book will serve to separate the myth and the recent nationwide hype about outsiders being the greatest threat to business and government DP security. The truth is that insiders pose a far greater threat to the organization's computer security than outside "electronic invaders" possibly could. The reason is pure and simple. Insiders are familiar with their employer's DP operations and the type of data each system and application is storing and processing. Consequently they know where to look for specific data. And if they are in doubt, they can reference the systems' documentation which usually includes programming specifications, file and record layouts, a date element dictionary, and so on. But most significantly, insiders have or can get the password to access stored crucial information such as financial, marketing, manufacturing, technological, or research data unless proper prevention and detection measures are in effect. What is computer security? According to the experts, computer security is an umbrella that protects the organization's hardware and software, as well as the data and information processed by the computer, against abuse, fraud, embezzlement, sabotage, and intentional or accidental damage or natural disaster. The responsibility for protecting the company's computer systems belongs to the highest level of management. Only management can institute the rules, define their philosophy, and implement proper measures not only to secure the physical properties, but also personnel measures that will go a long way towards the deterrence of computer crime by an individual or groups of individuals. Our author, has created a list of "things" that management should follow to provide the maximum security for their installations. Throughout the entire text, Ms. Van Duyn stresses that the first step in deterrence and prevention of crime is management's willingness to accept the fact that people do and can commit crime. Julia Van Duyn is currently teaching Computer Security and Systems Analysis at Sacramento State College. Previously she was employed at a number of computer installations as a systems analyst and documentation specialist. She has written several books prior to this one. Size: 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
