[wharton] Hardly a week goes by without some new internet security snafu being reported. And with web usage exploding, expect to hear about a lot more. According to a new analysis from Forrester Research, the number of Internet users is forecast to grow 45% globally over the next four years, reaching 2.2 billion by 2013. More people online, more data to hack -- it's a cybercriminal's paradise.
Many people don't yet fully understand the enormity of the threat -- to individuals, their families and the companies that they work for, warns Andrea M.

A frequent public commentator on the topic, Matwyshyn is the editor of a forthcoming book titled, Harboring Data: Information Security, Law and the Corporation.
