Being Human In A Computer World

In this day and age, computers are used in every facet of life to create messages, compute profits, transfer funds, access bank accounts and to browse the Internet for good and bad purposes. They are in our homes and our place of business. With the convenience of laptop or workbook computers, they are even in our places of recreation.

While this new age of computers has increased productivity in business, it has also given new avenues to criminal activity, security leaks and breaches, and increased the likelihood of company policy abuses. It has also taken white collar crime to a new level. Surveillance is one way of monitoring what might be "going out the backdoor", but what is being seen or passed through the "Windows" of your company?
