You may understand cybercrime as using a computer
as a weapon, or instrument, to advance or secure
something deemed illegal. It remains a criminal
activity that either targets or uses a computer,
a computer network or a networked device. Also,
cybercrime involves different types of profit-
driven criminal activity like ransomware attacks,
email and internet fraud, and identity fraud. It
includes attempts to steal financial accounts,
credit cards or other payment card information.

You may guard your systems and information
against cyber criminals by updating to anti-virus
software and other means of protection. An
automatic update may plug the gaps in our
everyday software security as they have various
issues that the developers may find
daily. Again, you may store your data and files
securely by backing them up with the security
settings available on them. IT professionals
usually follow a rule for such safety with three

Cybercrime evolution coincides with the
development of the internet as first offenses
remained essential hacks from local networks to
steak records. Therefore, the initial computer
worm appeared on the internet in 1988, the Morris
worm, named after its inventor Robert
Morris. It offered a lot of damage even though
this worm remained designed to be malevolent.
Eventually, cyber criminal behaviour has only
become worse in recent years who have grown
adept and difficult to apprehend as computer
systems have become quicker and more complicated.

The internet has become everyone's life, with
every work accomplished through electronic
devices. It influences people to work swiftly,
making them dependent on it for every detail.
Thus, the internet, computer, and other devices
have increased the chance of cybercrime since
their inception. Cybercrime affects people's
everyday working capabilities or harms their
identity differently. However, technology has
allowed us to protect ourselves from cyber crimes
by fighting back and preventing them through
exceptional methodologies.
