\nSome of the main information that I learned about from reading the two selections is that most companies don't want to report anything when their security system gets cracked because they know that their costumers would leave if they didn't think that their private files are safe. Another thing that I learned is that some companies are not very wealthy or don't have enough money to update their security. Also the people that the companies do business with want to keep everything private and not out on the web with their personal information.
\n
\nSome of the things that I learned about reading "Lack of Reporting" and "Lack of Resources" is that some of the companies don't want to report the intrusion of their security system is because most of the times the report doesn't lead to an arrest of the person that did the crime. Also the cops don't have enough money to train officers mainly on computer crime and how to track people down using computers only.
\n
\nI found it interesting that some companies didn't want to find the people that cracked their security system and see what they need to do to fix it. Also that 32 percent of companies report to the police about what happened to them.
\n
\nOne thing that I would like to know more of is why the companies don't fix their systems or if they know who cracked their security why don't they just hire them to fix it and make it even better.

\nthat they realize that if they were to report that some of peoples private information had gotten out and they dont know who has it, they will lose a great percentage of their customers. So they don't report it for the sake of their company. Since the bad people who are hacking into the systems know that they aren't getting reported or caught, they think that they can just keep doing it and get the same results. this is causing a great increase in computer software theft and cyber crime, and if business' realized this then a lot of the cyber crime would depreciate. If the business' fail to report the crime, another way to eliminate the problem is to get a new system, or simpily change to a different security program.

There are many reasons why they feel they shouldn\u2019t. They don\u2019t want their consumers to know about it. And whoever the suspects are would never be arrested. They also want their consumers to be safe. So they would be better off not saying anything. It would be extremely hard to arrest someone for this. And it would be even harder to find reason s.
\nIt is not that the companies do not have the resources to track the intruders down. They have enough money and technology. But they just chose not to. And law enforcement does not like to handle technology crimes. These kinds of intrusions are incredible complicated to solve. And the training for it is very expensive.
\nFederal resources have increased their time in these kinds of cases. But they can only do so much. And when they do not have the right technology there is not much they can do. And since there are not many resources for this they hold off until there are \u201cmore serious\u201d cases. Some people do not agree with this.
\nI understand why companies don\u2019t like to file reports. But this is wrong. And I think the law enforcement should make a much bigger effort to intrusion and cyberspace crimes. Some companies have the equipment to search for intruders, but most of the time they don\u2019t really want to. This is unfair because it does not benefit their customers.

Then that means that they customers will try to find other companies to that are better.Also like wat zurri said wat if some of the customers are the suspects or the computer intrusions.
\n
\nBut honestly if I was working with that company I would lock them up but it was saying in the book how the law enforcement were being very stereotype or retarted because solving computer crimes is very difficult to solve.
\n
\n
\nIt was also saying how law enforcement dont have the technology or equipment. But the training also cost alot of money so that makes them not be in the technical field.
\n
\nBut maybe if they was to invest more and maybe trained more for computer investigations then they alot of companies would trust them.They would be getting more repots,computer crimes and the investigators would be more helpful and would be easier to catch the computer intrusions.","dateCreated":"1269697685","smartDate":"Mar 27, 2010","userCreated":{"username":"agrant125","url":"https:\/\/www.wikispaces.com\/user\/view\/agrant125","imageUrl":"https:\/\/ssl.wikicdn.com\/i\/user_none_lg.jpg"}},{"id":"22127975","body":"Also I think these companies have the equipment to find the intrusions themselves.

Some companies do not discuss when we are in danger in security, because they want us to have faith in their companies. Another reason computer crime is not reported to law enforcement is because they think reporting the crime will not do anything, or in fact lead to the result in catching the criminal. In my opinion, this is not right because as I consumer of their company, I want to know everything I may be in danger of.
