While we exist in physical space, information pertaining to our identity, health status, shopping habits, entertainment activities, family members, location, education, friends, preferences, assets, liabilities and other attributes are increasingly being sited and manipulated in cyberspace.

Each day, people are attacked by individuals, automated systems, institutions and even governments. The quest for lucrative financial gain has become a compelling motivator for many of these aggressors.
