Increasingly, these attacks result in the breach of large files of personal data, interruptions in a range of online services, and even global network disruptions that impact web access. Defining the Right to Know reviews the security issues associated with cybercrime attacks, and supports the position that proactively sharing information and resources about attacks is the correct path to fight further attacks.
