The security of information systems is an ever growing issues as computer abuse is increasing; therefore the report will also aim to cover the issues of security in information systems for organisations and on the internet, which has had a profound effect on the computing industry. There are four main sections that make up this report. The first section will introduce the readers to the possible consequences and a threat to computer based information systems, including the lack of security in organisations and will show the importance of this problem.

The second section of the report will discuss the breaches made by hackers and how they have been caught by policing methods and what methods should be implemented to help prevent fraudulent crime or any crime in regards to technology. The third section will focus and deal with issues on how to secure the insecure, and finally solutions to the problems will be discussed in the report, which will state how to make the Internet and networked systems more secure.

It is hoped that the report will help raise awareness in information systems and network managers surrounding the issues of computer security as it is extremely important in thus era of modern technologies playing a major role in the way that an organisation operates.
