Differentiate cybercrime from cyberterrorism.

What will be an ideal response?


A strong answer will include the main difference, which is the motivation. Generally, cyberterrorism is motivated via political, religious, or social objectives, whereas cybercrime is generally motivated via financial gain, fun, thrill (per the example provided by the author in the text). The students can use that example to illustrate the differences among motivation, target, action, result, and offense.
