Cyber Security

· Thesis Statement

It is virtually impossible to eliminate the threat of cyber-attacks because of globalization and digitization effects on the world.

· Background Information

Cyber security is a broad concept discussing efforts toward protecting programs, data, networks and information systems from cyber-related threats. Cybersecurity is a global issue affecting all sectors of the society, because these sectors are now connected to the internet. For instance, the banking sector has e-commerce.

· Reason topic sentences

· Legislations are often put to an end by privacy advocates with a healthy skepticism toward government ulterior motives(Clemmitt, 2012).

· Hackers are well versed in the art of masking their identity and location, which makes the process of identifying and prosecuting exceedingly difficult (Flamini, 2013).

· The nature of cyber-attacks is often transnational (Marshall, 2010).

Relation to law, society and justice

The topic chosen has a direct correlation to the issues of law and society. The internet has brought about profound changes across the globe, but it has a dark criminal side that threatens to undermine the achievements of the digital age and the potential yet to be actualized (Flamini). There is therefore, a dire need for new criminal justice interventions to address this new threat to public safety.
