However, even though the planning of any made by the government and private sector in tackling this problem will fail if there was no awareness of the community of Internet users. Internet users must be aware of the use of the Internet in an ethical manner. They should be aware of the MIM2# , the body established to monitor the crime. &sers must also reminded not to invite this cyber crime by letting their Internet site open to cyber criminals. *or security reasons, Internet users must ensure that their computer has enough defense.

'll parties should not underestimate this. 's responsible citi)ens, collaboration is one of the best solution. "arties responsible for not bringing the total number that represents the &#' as a comparison. If the percentage is considered one that is far, Malaysia will face a big problem because of cyber3crime attacks are easily attacked. /hen the attack occurred, did not use all the pointing fingers at each other to put the offense. 'ctually, all parties to play their respective roles. Aet us use the internet for our self3interest. Various benefits that we can get if we wisely use the facility.
