Hackers’ Favourite Country
Many countries have been victims of hackers. But if you want to ask which country that hacked the most, there is one country which has been hackers’ favorite to launch their attack. Which country is it? Australia.
According to iDefence security expert Kimberly Zenz, many hackers, especially Russian hackers like Australia as their attacking target. The reason for this is because the number of bank in this country is considered not too many, so the cracker can be easier to find victims.
The act of cyber crime that can be found a lot in Australia is phising, which mislead the victim to a website full of bad program that can gather victim’s private informations, such as credit card number, names and email address.
