New and emerging threats of cyber crime and terrorism

Eric Luiijf

Abstract

Advancements in information and communication technologies (ICT) inextricably bring new threats to the end-users and society. However, history has shown that many of the threats affecting new ICT innovation developments can be predicted. The reason is that with each new ICT advancement the developers and programmers fail to take previously identified cyber security lessons into account. This chapter looks at emerging application ICT areas and discusses the new cyber security threats we have to prepare for.
