5 Why Be Concerned About Computer Security? There are a number of security concerns related to computers that users should be aware of, including: Having a PC stolen Losing important data Losing contact lists Pirated or counterfeited products Chapter 15 Understanding Computers, 12th Edition 5
6 Hardware Loss, Damage, and System Failure Hardware loss: Can occur when a portable PC, USB flash drive, mobile device, or other piece of hardware is stolen or lost by the owner Hardware theft: One of the most obvious types of hardware loss Occurs when hardware is stolen from an individual or an organization Hardware can be stolen from homes, businesses, cars, airports, hotels, etc. Often for the value of the hardware, but increasingly for the information that might be contained on the hardware C level attacks are growing Chapter 15 Understanding Computers, 12th Edition 6
