, 1. Introduction:
Cyberspace comes with new types of challenges to the governments of the world and it
therefore introduces a further dimension to National Security. It is a borderless platform
that enables more sophisticated threats such as cybercrime.
Cyber-crime means any criminal or other offence that is facilitated by or involves the use of
electronic communications or information systems, including any device or the Internet or
any one or more of them.
The numerous cyber-attacks launched in recent years against advanced information
societies aimed at undermining the functioning of public and private sector information
systems have placed the abuse of cyberspace high on the list of security threats. The
acknowledgment that such attacks pose a threat to international security reached new
heights in 2007 owing to the first-ever co-ordinated cyber-attack against an entire country
and also because of large-scale cyber-attacks against information systems in many other
countries as well.
In this essay, I will be discussing the various cybercrime techniques that many people will
encounter when using computers and information communication technology.
