The rise of the Internet has led to many important questions that are given. One of the important issues related to privacy and security. These questions have been raised for several reasons organizations deem important. First, because the information on employee computers, the other because they have saved their own important information stored on computers, and thirdly, because many organizations in the Internet through a web site for information or retail sales on the Internet.

The issue of security will become an important issue for organizations and will undoubtedly become the responsibility of the HR department in many organizations, with issues of security and confidentiality of information systems renewal is usually administered by the Department of Human Resources (Bernardin and Russell). In this paper it will be investigated from the Internet to issues of confidentiality and security. Recognizing that the Internet is relatively new and rapidly changing, the survey will be supplemented by an eye to see into the future. First I will present the modern history of the Internet and how it relates to privacy and security. I will then discuss several important security and confidentiality rules to the relevant organizations. I will address shortly protection options available to address these problems.

INTERNET AND Privacy and Security Privacy is not a new concept, but it was important to the people for centuries. The advent of the Internet, but here the issue of confidentiality to a new level. Privacy is described as “the ability of individuals to decide when, how and to what extent information about them communicated to others” (IBM). Security is always a concern. The importance of the Internet and information technology for society, it is a tool that can be used against national security, against people or against organizations. In addition, the mass of available information is collected via the Internet. The Internet has become a deep part of our society, the impact on all aspects of IT. assume with this broad impact, to achieve security issues on different subjects and different forms. Also in question is the fact that the Internet remains in its infancy, described by the Internet revolution as “an experts estimate that less than 10 percent complete (IBM) is. As the Internet grows and changes, new security and privacy issues appear.

How changes in the environment, issues of confidentiality and security checks. There is no doubt that the Internet will probably change creates issues such as the Internet and the company will continue to adapt to one another. Also this knowledge through the examination of issues we can now begin to see their current and their future direction. Security and Privacy Hacker Everyone is under the threat of pirates to the organization, information from the government and from individuals. The reason for hackers vary as much as those who are victims of piracy, “Crackers are not necessarily for the secret files or valuable enterprise data, many just want a machine – fast. Most machines are victims as a buffer to launch further attacks” (Tanase). Basically, the pirates operating in hiding by a chain of machines. Reasons for hacking are extremely varied and can include access to information, development of information packages and the introduction of viruses. For the organization, information extracted to be used against the organization. This information can then be used in different ways. Disgruntled employees may seek information to use against the organization. The risk of abuse also depends on the type of organization. A university is such a danger to the students of the changed records of their results, while an organization involved in contentious issues, such as a gun manufacturer may be endangered by demonstrators, anti-gun.

Hackers can also intervene in damage to the company’s Web site

The reasons and the shape of the crime of piracy on the Internet are as varied as the crimes typically varies. As the Internet spreads more and more Internet crime of all crimes can be mirrored. For example, a disgruntled employee may vandalize vandalize the website of the organization. Impact on pending cases Hacker attacks are the biggest threats to governments and businesses, with ninety percent of the corporations and governments suffer from attacks by pirates each year. From these companies, only one third were willing to report attacks to the FBI. Eighty percent reported financial losses, but most were not prepared to quantify the financial losses.

The majority of the agencies and ministries do not suffer from security breaches. It is also worth noting that not all piracy is also an important part of company personnel. The fact that the majority are willing to report or verify problems is an indication that this is a problem that is as significant and harmful. Avoid organizations usually report problems to avoid alarming shareholders, while the ministries to avoid public concern. By knowing the shareholders and state guarantees of their right to these crimes, there is a probable future, if such violations are to be reported. The reality is that these threats can not be ignored.

A study by the National Institute of Standards and Technology has recognized that “information systems and computer processing are the most valuable asset of an organization. Adequate security of these systems is an essential task in the management” (NIST). The report of the National Institute of Standards and Technology provides a framework for establishing a program of security system. The program needs in two ways: “Agency programs must:

1. Ensure that systems and applications to operate efficiently and appropriate confidentiality, integrity and availability, and
2. Protection of information according to the level of risk and the extent of the damage from the loss, misuse, unauthorized access or alteration “(NIST).

This examines the system and the method for determining levels may how organizations approach security considerations in the future. It is also that “many companies and consumers are only beginning to realize the value of information technology applied to and the efficiency and effectiveness of innovations in data collection and management firm” (IBM) come with the growing recognition of the increased use of information by organizations, and with this increased use comes a greater need for privacy and security.

Information on the Internet

The Internet is also likely to influence a person’s privacy as a publisher of information. You can use the Internet as a tool for communication of information as to watch the television, newspapers and other media. The difference is that the Internet is not dominated as much information published. With television and newspapers, the inspections are to determine what is communicated. It is generally not possible for a person to information, without checking to release it somehow. But with the Internet, a person to publish and have messages to people around the world without the need for controls on information. Basically, the Internet allows anyone to say something, and say something too many people. As a result, the Internet is likely to be used as a tool to defame others.

A recent court case shows that this is done, the case is described as follows: “A jury has sued in state court awarded $ 3,000,000 Tuesday to a professor at the University of North Dakota individual, a former student for defamation after she accused him in an online article of being a pedophile. Professor John L. Wagner, 41, has filed its continuation for an article titled “Kinky, Torrid Romance by Randy Physics Professor” was published on the website Undnews. com “(Bartlett). This example shows how information can be disseminated widely on all issues on the Internet. The verdict shows that the law of its conception as a slander. The ease of publishing on the Internet and the difficulty of control is there documented Written by the fact that the article is now on a different site (Bartlett). This situation is one that controls in the future are laid, controls, as a guarantee for what can and can not publish on the Internet as fact. should do to the guilty verdict in this case the way for other measures to libel and defamation laws are intended for the Internet. Although it is a case against a person, it is also possible that this kind of defamation could be great on an organization created its products or services. It is possible that dissatisfied customers can publish reports on adverse society.

More options

The possibilities of using the Internet for illicit benefits include fraud as novel and inventive as the Internet itself. One option that is not currently illegal, is relatively, with the help of a software as a way of distribution is another. One example is the universities concerned KaZaA software that is used to store and exchange video clips and MP3 files. This software is designed specifically for students and is downloaded by a large number of students. It was reported that this software is “a software is included, according to the company the student computers and bandwidth to the University for commercial enterprises that use such as Internet advertising or selling computer service space” (Carlson). If this is not an illegal process, it is misleading for the user. It also shows how the technology for purposes other than those that we buy can be used. This is important because they can get information in a manner to be hidden in programs, and it is for them to be used illegally in the future. He also said that the universities are geared primarily because it has a considerable amount of unused space on the hard disk (Carlson) have. This could apply to many organizations, so organizations can also a target for such programs in the future to be.

Security and privacy Security Programs

Security programs currently composed of two main types. The first programs that prevent the virus from damaging are his receiving computer viruses. One of the interesting things about these programs is that they require constant updating. The constant updates show how quickly the virus affects change. Remained essentially a group of people to create new viruses, while a second group is aware of these viruses and create antidotes for viruses. The second type of safety program is a software firewall. Software firewall prevents hackers access to computers. Like viruses, these programs are constantly updated with changes in technology hacker. Consultants Security & Privacy Security and privacy have also established a new industry of consultants, consulting, offer employees and systems of governments, organizations and individuals. An example of such a company is Rent-A-Hacker, whose profile is as follows: “Rent-A-Hacker was created to anyone so the means to protect their valuable information. Cybersecurity concentrate Unlike most companies, whose aim is to sell a product safety, we focus on the testing, detection and proactive prevention (Rent-A-Hacker). To achieve these goals, turn organizations, experts in Internet security and hacking. This organization is an example that can result where the future of Internet security. can not go with the experts in the development of new facilities, Internet security software sufficient breach. A system of experts as an effective defense fight may be the only way to protect against hackers and other breaches of both the security and confidentiality.

Government action

The government plays an important role in the execution of the confidentiality and security at two levels. The first is its role in establishing rules for the private sector. The second is to establish guidelines for the proper use of government information (IBM). With the broad implications of the Internet it is also recognized that state control is essential, “the growing interdependence of the company underscores the need for government officials, far-reaching impact of the Internet and the revolution to understand Information Technology (IBM). The government responded to this challenge by producing a series of internationally recognized principles, the principles of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development developed and known as the OECD guidelines (IBM). These guidelines include the fair information practices for organizations providing such data structure and the disclosure of data (IBM). IBM described the U.S. security measures and privacy, said: “The U.S. has legislatively required coverage in target areas: government, credit reports, banking and financial services, healthcare and information for children.

In other industries such as retail line and relies on the USA to their traditional common-law partner to Industry Leadership and responsibility, to lead the way “(IBM).

Legal protection

The legal part of the Internet is largely administered by the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section of the Department of Justice. The shares of the section are described, namely: “Comment Section attorneys advise prosecutor and law enforcement officials, and to fight proposals for legislation, coordination of international efforts to combat computer crime, plead cases and training for all groups of law enforcement. Other areas of expertise of lawyers DVO include encryption, electronic privacy laws, search and seizure of computers, e-commerce, surveys of piracy and intellectual property crime (IPC). The legal protection in the United States are many and varied, a number of issues concerning the Internet. These considerations include the E-Commerce, on topics such as online gaming, online distribution of medical products and Consumer Protection (CCIP). Existing laws are also in the field of computer crime in context. These cyber-crime is one, Internet fraud, child pornography and identity theft (DVO).

Insurance cover

Another sector that reflects the growing importance of Internet security, the insurance industry. Policies were acquired in 2001, nearly 100 million in 2001, it should be at least $ 1 billion for the year 2007 (Salkever). The policies available to organizations including the protection against “virus attacks, denial of service attacks, cracks in enterprise systems and dismantling of the site. Some companies even write that cyber-extortion policy, where an intruder or an insider critical data online cover to steal files, such as credit card information of customers and requires a payment. The rising tide of lawsuits against companies whose employees have used company e-mail is false, the attention of e-insurance “(Salkever).

It should also be noted that the insurance industry has become an important part in securing the Internet, they affect the possibility of the computer security company. This will be carried out by the insurance companies determine what kinds of security products and practices are acceptable. Thereafter, the premiums vary depending on which software systems are used effectively scoring systems and products, that the choice of company influence on consumers. The company is also expected to impact because of the e-insurance is a necessity, “as the cyber-insurance exotic, a company must the computer industry, safety must adapt to keep insurers happy” (Salkever).

It is certainly necessary to influence insurance to cover both the organizations and products, and the necessary measures to achieve this cover potential, “is the way of the future, the insurer exercise an even greater burden on the practices of technology by each company, that this aspect will increasingly provide important activity “(Salkever) for that. He also recognizes the possible link between insurance companies and security products to argue “that the insurers for the application software companies to defects in their products responsibility – and they have the legal firepower to make them liable for the software” (Salkever ).
