The largest problem when it comes to security concerns in regards to hacking national security is that often times individual data and information becomes available for the public to see. Cooney (2009) says “[hackers] damage public morale and confidence”. He is absolutely right, because the hacker not only stole their information, but also their assurance. Also, the loss of national, confidential documents is a huge issue to discuss. “Cybercriminals intruded into around 150 computer systems at the Ministry and gained unauthorized access to several confidential documents.” (“French Finance Ministry Suffers Cyber-attack”, 2011). The French Finance Ministry lost many top secret papers due to the fact of hackers stealing and intruding information. Hacking all in all is a security concern. Hacking interferes with the normal route of cyber traffic and causes negativity on all ends. To follow the analysis further, now this paper will examine social problems.
