More and more, the operation of our business, governments, and financial institutions are controlled by information that exists only inside computer memories. Anyone clever enough to modify this information for his own purpose can reap substantial rewards. Even worse, a number of people who have done this and caught have managed to get away without punishment.
It’s easy for computer crimes to go undetected if no one checks up on what the computer is doing. But even if the crime is detected, the criminal may walk away not only unpunished but with a glowing recommendation from his former employers.
Of course, we have no statistics on crimes that go undetected. But it’s disturbing to note how many of the crimes we do know about were detected by accident, not by systematic inspections or other security procedures. The computer criminals who have been caught may be the victims of uncommonly bad luck.
For example, a certain keypunch operator complained of having to stay overtime to punch extra cards. Investigation revealed that the extra cards she was being asked to punch were for dishonest transaction. In another case, dissatisfied employees of the thief tipped off the company that was being robbed.
Unlike other lawbreakers, who must leave the country, commit suicide, or go to jail, computer criminals sometimes escape punishment, demanding not only that they not be charged but that they be given good recommendations and perhaps other benefits. All too often, their demands have been met.
Why? Because company executives are afraid of the bad publicity that would result if the public found out that their computer has been misused. They hesitate at the thought of a criminal boasting in open court of how he juggled the most confidential records right under the noses of the company’s executives, accountants, and security staff. And so another computer criminal departs with just there commendations he needs to continue his crimes elsewhere.
It can be concluded from the first paragraph that______.
选项
A、it is still impossible to detect computer crimes today
B、computer crimes are very serious in the operation of financial institutions
C、computer criminals can escape punishment because they can’t be detected
D、people commit computer crimes at the request of their company
答案
B
解析
推理题。文章的第一段提到,商业、政府和金融机构的运作越来越多地被只存在于计算机内存上的信息所左右。任何聪明的人都可以按自己的目的改变这些信息,取得可观的收获。这里实际上是说,犯罪分子可以改变计算机的内存信息,以饱私囊。由此可见,计算机犯罪现象很严重。
