Examples and rumours abound of companies being burgled by cyberfrauds, cyberspooks or cyber-mischief-makers. The loss of industrial secrets is perhaps even more worrying to companies than that of their customers' credit-card data. In a report by Britain's Cabinet Office last year, Detica, the software arm of BAE Systems, a defence company, put the cost of cybercrime to the country at a staggering Pounds 27 billion, or 1.8% of GDP. Most of the cost of cybercrime, it concludes, is indirect, such as spending on antivirus software or other corporate defences. In other words, a lot goes on payments by one lot of businesses to another: the computer-security industry. That may be inevitable. Cyber-attacks are happening more often and are becoming more precisely targeted. The bad guys are increasingly using social media to try to find a way in.
