What will be an ideal response?


The generic term cybercriminals is often used to describe individuals who launch attacks against other users and their computers (another generic word is simply attackers). However, strictly speaking cybercriminals are a loose network of attackers, identity thieves, and financial fraudsters who are highly motivated, less risk averse, well funded, and tenacious. Some security experts believe that many cybercriminals belong to organized gangs of young attackers, often clustered in Eastern European, Asian, and Third World regions.
