本章着眼于文献神话和现实,围绕人口统计,心理倾向,和社会/行为模式的计算机黑客,以更好地了解危害,可以造成目标的人和财产的在线违规行为。作者认为,一些关于计算机地下(CU)的流行理论-例如那些由性心理理论家支持的理论-可能不如基于性别角色社会化的理论准确,因为最近的实证研究旨在更好地了解CU中的那些人以及他们为什么从事黑客和破解活动。作者在本章的最后坚持认为,在线违规行为和对隐私、安全和信任的在线担忧将需要比目前更复杂的解决方案,心理学、犯罪学、法律和信息技术安全方面的专家团队需要合作,为虚拟世界带来更有效的现实解决方案。
This chapter looks at the literature—myths and realities—surrounding the demographics, psychological predispositions, and social/behavioral patterns of computer hackers, to better understand the harms that can be caused to targeted persons and property by online breaches. The authors suggest that a number of prevailing theories regarding those in the computer underground (CU)—such as those espoused by the psychosexual theorists—may be less accurate than theories based on gender role socialization, given recent empirical studies designed to better understand those in the CU and why they engage in hacking and cracking activities. The authors conclude the chapter by maintaining that online breaches and online concerns regarding privacy, security, and trust will require much more complex solutions than currently exist, and that teams of experts in psychology, criminology, law, and information technology security need to collaborate to bring about more effective real-world solutions for the virtual world.
