LinksSupervised Release and Probation Restrictions in Hacker Cases http://www.cybercrime.gov/usamarch2001_7.htm An often overlooked aspect of sentencing in computer crime cases are conditions that the court can impose as part of a sentence of probation or supervised release. These conditions can be tailored to restrict, among other things, a defendant’s employment, associations, and other activities, once he is released from any term of imprisonment the court imposes to protect the public and aid in a defendant’s rehabilitation. Such conditions are routinely imposed in non-computer crime cases. Details | Report |
Working with Victims of Computer Network Hacks http://www.cybercrime.gov/usamarch2001_6.htm At the most basic level, we rely on network operators to report to us when their systems are hacked. Intrusion victims, however, are often even more reluctant to call law enforcement than other business victims. This reluctance has been reflected in the surveys conducted jointly by the Computer Security Institute and the FBI. In the year 2000 survey, for example, only 25% of the respondents who experienced computer intrusions reported the incidents to law enforcement. To better understand why and to learn how we can promote reporting, the Department of Justice has undertaken a concerted effort to reach out to the operators of our nation’s computer networks.
