“Intruders in Cyberspace”
Adapted from: Club Magazine
Thousands of electronic signs around the world flash 'Happy New Year'. Kissing and hugging begins around the globe as people welcome 2008. But what if the sign says `hello mum' instead, because a hacker has changed it? Is that funny? Maybe. What if he alters more crucial computers? What if someone pays him a lot of money to disrupt whole companies…or even countries?
Just what is it that motivates someone to try to break into computer systems? Some people just enjoy the adrenaline thrill of proving they can do it. Last year some electronic New York City subway signs were changed. They said `Hackers Quarterly' instead of the name of the station. That's an example of the work of harmless but slightly annoying geeks. These types of hackers are often classified as `Cyber-punks' or `script kiddies'. They are usually male, between 12 and 30, white, educated and very bored. If they cause a tiny bit of disruption they feel cool and superior.
A hacker in France managed to reprogram the exchange rates of ATM machines so he could get thousands of dollars for his Euros. Although this is serious, it was something he simply did to make a small profit.
Criminal hackers (known as crackers) go one step further. They use their knowledge to spy on different companies and get paid for it. Many have connections with organized criminal and terrorist groups. With so much of our world being controlled by computers, it would be easy for a cracker to create havoc. If they could disrupt electricity stations, water supplies or even air traffic control, they could do serious damage. For terrorist groups such as Al-Qaeda, this would be perfect - a war using bytes not bullets.
Governments and companies are taking the threat of cyberterrorism very seriously. Governments are also making sure human checks are done constantly in cases of things such as air traffic control to ensure disasters do not occur. They are also spending millions of dollars on making systems more secure and employing their own `cybergeeks'. There are a lot of hackers who come into what is known as the Robin Hood category. They are similar to script kiddies and cyberpunks - they do it for the fun or the satisfaction of becoming a hero through a cyber attack. These guys write viruses and trojan horses for fun. A trojan horse is a virus that installs itself on your computer without being seen. It means someone can spy on all your keyboard actions. The hackers can control the trojan horse and even use it to destroy all your files.
You need to think like a hacker to beat a hacker and governments want to ensure they have the best. In many cases they are inviting hackers to do their best to attack them so that they can see where they are vulnerable. A US security chief said “We will train `cybergeek' armies in the same way as we train normal armies”.
Cyberspace intruders can be a problem because
they changed the electronic signs on New Year on 2008
they will be able to destroy crucial computers
they can be paid a lot of money to spy on companies
they might disrupt entire countries to make profit
The Cyber-punk is usually
an unpopular but intelligent person
a white teenage male with an educational background
a profit-oriented irritating person in their thirties
an idle person who likes to have his self-esteem boosted
In the world being controlled by computers
it's easy to find connections with terrorist and criminal groups
electricity stations, water supplies and air traffic are frequently disrupted
crackers have the possibility to cause total chaos
a war using bytes instead of bullets is uncertain
The hackers in the Robin Hood category
are unique and untrackable
B. rarely cause serious destruction
C. are incapable of taking over and deleting your files
are able to trace what you've been doing and monitor your keyboard actions
Governments
invite hackers to their systems and attack them
let hackers break into their systems to spot their own weknesses
realise how vulnerable they are
ensure they have the best security systems
