Scams, extortion, fraud, identity theft, malware, ransomware and phishing are all around us in our online digital world. Cybercrime is a crime where a cyber element -- such as computers, tablets or smart phones -- has a substantial role in the commission of a crime. For instance, criminals will use malicious software ("malware") to illegally access computer systems, will use hacking to steal sensitive data such as personal information such as passwords and banking information, denial of service attacks to disrupt online services. These crimes happen in Delta and in communities across the country and around the world. Delta Police Constable Dustin Classen, of the Cyber Crime Division, gave an update on "Cyber Crime" to Ladner Rotary members on October 8, 2024.
