Testimony of Bill Conner, President and CEO of Entrust<\/p>\n
Before the Subcommittee on Communications and Technology
of the Energy and Commerce Committee
U.S. House of Representatives<\/p>\n
Part 1<\/p>\n
Hacking for Harm<\/p>\n
Experts agree that cybercrime poses a greater threat to the security of nations, corporations and individuals than ever before. In recent years, cybercriminals have moved from hacking for honor \u2014 such as for bragging rights within the hacker community \u2014 to hacking for harm and profit; in short, it’s now overt criminal activity. Increasingly, the most common victims of targeted cybercrimes are those who can least afford a major financial hit such as small businesses. With the increased dependence of the Internet to conduct business, it is no surprise that cybercrimes \u2014 ranging from identity theft to financial fraud to cyber terrorism \u2014 have dramatically increased against small and large enterprises. Unlike citizens, who are protected by FDIC regulations, businesses’ cash or intellectual property is not safeguarded by law.<\/p>\n
