This document discusses security issues with conducting business over the internet. While the internet provides opportunities for communication and knowledge sharing, it also exposes companies to risks like hacking and data breaches. Various sectors and small to medium size businesses are all vulnerable to security problems online. The document argues that internet is good for business but companies must include security in their business plans and find a balance between risk and budget when it comes to protecting themselves online. It provides sources on specific hacking incidents and concludes by asking students to discuss in groups which sectors are most at risk and whether small businesses face security issues with internet business.

thirty-something men sporting gold chains.
• I ask my cab driver if these men all have high-

as if typing on a keyboard…
• “They steal money on the Internet.”
