What Are Cyber Attacks?
Cyber attacks are attempts made by hackers to damage or destroy a computer system. They can also be attempts to gain sensitive data or personal information. There are many forms of cyber attacks, including:
- Phishing
- Man-in-the-middle attacks
- Malware: viruses, trojans, worms, ransomware, spyware
- Password attack
- Business email compromise
What Are the Penalties for This Crime?
There are three types of penalties for committing internet crimes. These are fines, jail time, and probations. The penalties depend on the severity of the crime and the type of crime. A misdemeanor is usually charged with minor fines of a few hundred dollars. Felonies can incur fines of thousands of dollars that can exceed $100,000.
The more serious internet crimes, such as possessing child pornography, can land you 20 years in jail or more. And that’s not including fines too.
Probation can be given as individual penalties or as an addition to the fines and jail time. Probation usually lasts one year and they vary depending on the crime. However, they usually require you to not commit any more crimes, maintain employment, pay all court fines and court costs, and report to a probation officer.
How to Qualify for Bail
When you get arrested, you will be assigned an arraignment date. At this arraignment, the judge will tell you what you have been convicted of and if you qualify for bail. There are a couple of factors that influence your ability to qualify. Those include the severity of the crime, your flight risk, and your past criminal history. If you are granted bail, you will also be informed of the amount. It is usually set very high and needs to be paid in cash. Most people don’t have thousands of dollars lying around, which is where our team comes in.
