• Key Note estimates that the cost of security breaches in the UK will reach £6bn in 2002, with the costs rising rapidly at 20% per annum, reflecting the increasing reliance of the UK economy on IT systems. Spending on products and services to prevent security breaches is estimated to be £6. ...
• This report focuses on two non-overlapping sectors of the IT security market: spending on security breach prevention (covering spending on security products and services and the Millennium Bug) and the costs of security breaches (covering the direct costs of suffering a security breach and the costs of software piracy in the UK). Security-specific products and services are taking a growing share of the total spend on security breach prevention, indicating that companies are focusing more of their spending on information security, rather than on areas such as physical security and IT maintenance.
• This is leading to companies taking a strategic view of IT security.
• There are also moves by major software vendors to keep security flaws in their products secret until patches have become available to make them secure.

• Leif Gamertsfelder, Andrew Handelsmann and Praveena Sivanesarajah of Deacons, explore the threat of unauthorised use of a company's computer systems. They submit that in the vast majority of cases, it is a company's own employees, not some "external menace", who are unlawfully accessing the company's computer systems. The authors consider current Australian legislative activity in the area of computer crime, on both the federal and state level, and examine relevant case law, particularly those cases relating to employee conduct. They also discuss areas of legal risk to which companies may be exposed as a result of computer crime undertaken by the company's employees.
• Leif Gamertsfelder is the leader of the E-security Group at Deacons in Sydney. Leif advises medium to large institutions in relation to a wide range of IT, privacy and e-security issues. Leif is also a columnist for the Australian Personal Computer. Andrew Handelsmann works in the Digital Industries and E-security Group at Deacons in Sydney. ...
• For some time now, employers have perceived the threat of unauthorised use of their computer systems as an external menace. 1 This is due in part to the high media attention given to stories about hackers gaining illegal access to the well-guarded computer networks of large companies and government departments. The truth is, however, that the vast majority of unlawful access and computer trespass offences against companies occur under the very noses of management, committed by employees from within the company's own ranks.
