Chapter 6: Computer and Network Security

Computer and the network security of computers is a prime example of humans not being able to keep up with modern technology. Technology has grown so rapidly that we are creating laws to protect people after an incident. Without computers hackers would not exist. Another example of technology advancing too quickly was the 2000 presidential election. Florida had a computer based election card. It also goes back to the last chapter about privacy. If individual privacy was not a right then phone phreaking, dumpster diving, and social engineering would not be an issue.
