Abstract:

The aim of my diploma paper is to show and discuss the evolution and growth of Information Technology, also including the relative growth in Computer Fraud and Piracy, which became a phenomenon of 21st century. The first part of my work is aimed at general characteristics of Computer Fraud its classification and a historical background. As previously mentioned in my papers, computer fraud was first committed by individuals purely as statement in both their own ability to do so and to demonstrate the susceptibility of organisations and programmes. After a period of time the large financial gain to be made became a major factor. The main reason was the vision of easily earned money and only a little chance of being discovered and punished for this activity. However, with the growth of new technologies this activity is becoming more and more dangerous for society as a whole, not only in the home environment but also on an international front. In the second part we are focusing on individual kinds of Computer Crime. I would like to mention particularly the growing problem with the Internet connection. Thanks to continued growth in internet usage most computer crime is committed via the internet. We can only expect it to continue increasing! I would also like to point out that there is not adequate control over key people in the environment and quite often these people are aware of the week links in these technologies. The third part is dedicated to the investigation of computer fraud. I will be pointing out the differences that exist in the investigation of individual cases. Offenders are generally people with higher or university education who have specialised in either the Technical or IT sectors. The gathering of evidence to prove illegal activity in those cases is both very important and extremely difficult. I would like to stress the importance of preventing such crimes. In last part of my diploma papers I will to show the importance of International co-operation and the need to change the legislative. Also the need for further research and to extend the general knowledge in IT.
