In the 21st century nothing is more pervasive than the internet. (“Of the 70% of Australians that use the computer 60% use the internet”) (http://www.abs.gov.au/Ausstats/abs@.nsf/lookupMF/ACC2D18CC958BC7BCA2568A9001393AE). However as the internet grows so does the personal information stored on the net; a wealth of data for hackers to access. Is our personal info at risk? “The Net,” a movie made 12 years ago, thought so.
The Internet has become and will continue to be a driving force in our lives. It will be seamless interwoven into our work and play. Privacy of personal information is a critical responsibility of businesses and organisations. They must keep this data secure using the latest encryption and security technologies otherwise our information will be just a vulnerable as that shown on the movie “The Net.”
For those concerned with internet privacy, this is one of the movies you need to watch.
