Personality Profile of a Cyber Criminal
An understanding of the criminal is a must in order to understand the kind of crime or
the level of crime that individual is capable of. The bases on which the cyber criminals are
distinguished are personal traits, motivating factors and even the types as in coders, inside
traders or even cyber terrorists. These help figure out the disturbances or off track behaviours
so as to identify them as a personality of a cyber -criminal (Cyber Security Capacity
Portral , 2016).
Specific crimes committed by Cyber Criminals
Few of the most common crimes that Cyber Criminals commit include, Cyber
Stalking, Online harassment, and invasion of privacy, trafficking of humans, phishing scams,
money laundering, pornography and also Identity Theft. Though there are various others, but
these are the few ones that are committed every now and then (Panda Security, 2018).
Society’s role
Throughout the past years , the law enforcement of the US has been progressively
seen or noticed the increase of cybercriminals in the far away areas of the country or so called
remote areas, both to enable nearby specialists to find and capture cyber criminals and to
remove them extradite them accordingly into the legitimate framework of America
(Burgess, 2018). Personally what people can do here is keeping them safe and not sharing
their private information with any one. Society on a larger scale can protect each other and
support building of certain softwares and even ask for help from the state as such to assist
them with funds and sources so as to protect their rights. Places where the extradition treaties
do not apply, in such cases, the government has to be pressured in order to take swift steps to
ensure the safety of its citizens (Greenberg, 2020).
