Cyber crime



In spite of massive Internet penetration in the metros, a whopping 79 per cent of Mumbai's citizens have no idea what to do when faced with cyber crime, reveals a survey of KPMG Advisory Services. What is equally alarming is that 96 per cent of the respondents didn't know whether they had been victims. This is ignorance of a dangerous kind when it is rising rapidly. It is not restricted to online fraud and child pornography. Terrorists have also found a safe haven here. The police in Mumbai and in other cities will need special units to tackle cyber crime.
