Uh-oh! Rise in internet hacking cases in HK

You may think that it’s not a significant number but 1,600 cases of internet hacking was recorded and reported in Hong Kong in 2013, an 52 percent increase in numbers compared to 2012. 

Internet security experts from the Hong Kong Computer Emergency Response Team Coordination Centre said hackers have been invading into people’s computers and compromising their privacy and security. They advise users people look into internet security, and take measures to protect themselves.
