The Internet is one of the greatest achiements of our time. Our professional and social lives are tied to its ever-expanding resources. It has changed the way we communicate, bank, shop and get our information. Unfortunately, modern conveniences also bring new dangers, cyber criminals who would do us harm -- spyware, malware, spoofing, phishing and fraud. Millions of Americans have been victimized, their privacy violated, identities stolen, lives upended and their wallets emptied. According to one survey, in the past two years alone cyber crime has cost Americans more than $8 billion. The question remains: How do you know which site is real and which one is fraudulent, unsecured and unsafe?
