Découvertes 9 avril 2006 • - Le cyberespace : à vos risques et périls -Ce futur imaginé il y a 20 ans dans les laboratoires de quelques visionnaires est aujourd’hui à la portée de tous les doigts. À la vitesse de la lumière, en faisant fi des distances, anonyme, un réseau de connexions unique dans l’histoire de l’humanité fait maintenant office de continent virtuel. Dans le cybermonde, il y a un milliard d’ordinateurs, dont les conversations en mode numérique sont devenues l’espace de jeu et d’affaires de la planète entière. Passeport pour se rendre dans le cyberespace : un simple ordinateur. C’est la clé d’entrée dans un territoire virtuel impossible à délimiter, dans lequel se paient les factures, se mobilisent les ONG, se communiquent les dernières nouvelles de la famille, s’ébauchent des banques de données médicales universelles et se complètent les rapports d’impôts, avec en prime, le numéro d’assurance sociale, clé de voûte de l’identité légale des citoyens. Dans le cyberespace circulent, chaque jour, 60 milliards de courriels et un trillion de dollars; on y trouve, en consultation libre, l'équivalent de 400 milliards de livres. Mais si les avantages offerts par le cyberespace sont fabuleux, les périls y sont aussi de plus en plus nombreux. Et ils commencent à la maison.

Forrester April 12 • Though online teens (ages 13 to 18) are slightly less likely than online adults to be victimized by phishing — 15% of online teens have received a fraudulent message, compared with 22% of adults — they are not blind to this malicious practice. Nearly two-thirds (62%) of online teens have heard the term "phishing," though only 55% are aware of its meaning, and 14% more know the practice but not the term. Most online teens view themselves as the first line of defense against online fraud, and many are willing to alter some online behaviors to increase protection of their personal information. CAUBO
