The document discusses hackers targeting smaller companies instead of larger ones now. Smaller companies may have less robust security systems and be less vigilant about changing passwords regularly, making them easier targets. A breach at a smaller company also may not attract much attention from investigators.

Are you the new target for hackers

Is your company a sitting duck for hackers? When did you last change your password? How
complete are your security systems? Have you ever been broken into before?
According to IANS, the Inter-national Association for Network Security, there’s a new breed
of hacker out there. And, there’s a new target.
In the past, hackers gained notoriety from breaking into big companys’ networks. In fact, the
bigger the company, the bigger the success. When hackers broke into Infelmax’s notoriously
secure sys-tem in 1999, they made headline news around the world.
The big “successes” came with a major drawback. These headline break-ins came with
international teams of investigators and serious criminal charges. Several former hackers are
now sitting behind bars or working overtime to pay off hefty fines in penalties and damages.
So, hackers of the new decade have turned to a new target: smaller companies. Smaller
companies often spend less on their security systems. If they have never been broken into
before, they may be lulled into a feeling of security. They are often lax about changing their
password frequently enough. And that spells trouble.
Also, a breached system in a smaller company may attract little public attention.
Investigations may be brief and superficial, as overloaded investigators pursue bigger
problems.
But if you do fall victim to hackers, it will definitely attract your own attention. These thieves
can gain access to your files, destroying, copying, or altering them. They can create havoc
with your data. And if they do, you’ll surely wish you had changed your password once more
often.
