  4. Computer forensics- what is it? • Identification, preservation, extraction, documentation and analysis of electronic data • Internet forensics- additional emphasis placed on the Internet • Requires extensive knowledge of computer hardware & software • Must be familiar with legislation governing local, state, regional, state, national & international laws

  5. How can identify theft occur? • Throwing away unwanted documents such as bank & credit card statements- criminal can gain access to personal information, which they can use to apply for credit cards in that person’s name • Phishing- defrauding victim by sending fraudulent email that looks real & asks recipient to update his/her personal information • Spyware- gives access to all computer activity including passwords, account numbers, user ID’s ; then sends it to the criminal’s computer
