∙ 15y agoStalking is when someone follows your every move without your knowledge, like showing up at your house or at your job,etc. Usually this type of situation is not warranted by the victims. Stalking laws have been enacted in the last several years to protect people. There are several types of stalkers. Some know their victims and others don't. Celebrities tend to acquire the kind of stalkers who have never met them in real life. Since the advent of the internet, Stalking has become Cyberstalking. Cyberstalkers do much the same thing, in that they follow their victims and find out personal information about them to exploit. Stalkers used to dig through their victims trash cans and and peep in their windows, but since we all are guilty of putting to much information on the internet, stalkers can now access that information with relative ease. Online stalkers can be your ex boy or girlfriend, a neighbor, or someone you have never met.

Cyber Security Awareness - Part 1?
The computer was originally created as a harmless aid to do complex processes. Over the years, however, the harmless machine, which is charged with almost limitless potential, has become the ground work for cyber crimes. These crimes, which affect individuals, organizations, and even governments, call for tight cyber security to cut short the possibilities of inflicting further harm. But what is cyber security exactly? And how does this protect the whole cyber community?First, let’s take a look at what Cyberspace is; it is a computer network consisting of a worldwide network of computer networks that use the TCP/IP network protocols to facilitate data transmission and exchange. It is considered to be the electronic medium of computer networks, in which online communication takes place. Simply put, it is therealmofelectroniccommunication – that millions explore each day.Cyber Security and Identity TheftIdentity Theft is considered to be one of today's biggest cyber security issues it is a major concern for all that travel the World Wide Web of cyberspace with their personal/business information exposed for all to see.Cyber crimes: crime committed using a computer and the internet to steal a person's identity or sell contraband or stalk victims or disrupt operations with malevolent programs.Cyber criminals are thieves that use all kinds of methods to steal personal or financial information from their victims through the illegal use of computers and the Internet.Avoid the RisksTo avoid such threats, computer users are advised to take cyber security measures. Cyber security is a set of techniques or guides that are aimed at protecting systems from any form of cyber attacks, which may creep into the system in the form of malware (virus and spyware), intruders, and hackers. Cyber security also lessens the risk of falling prey to Internet frauds, scams, and bogus transactions.Computer users are advised to maintain a security mindset – always do business with reputable companies and be skeptical of unfamiliar sites and links, suspicious e-mails and IM messages.
