Bots are one of the most sophisticated and popular types of cybercrime today. They allow hackers to take control of many computers at a time, and turn them into \u201czombie\u201d computers, which operate as part of a powerful \u201cbotnet\u201d to spread viruses, generate spam, and commit other types of online crime and fraud. The worldwide cost of cybercrime is estimated at over \u20ac750 billion annually in wasted time, lost business opportunities and the expense of fixing problems.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to developing wider cybersecurity strategies for Europe, the European Commission takes concrete actions to tackle cyber security risks, and pools resources with national governments, industry, universities and NGOs, to develop innovative technologies to improve cybersecurity.<\/p>\n<p>For the period 2007-2013, the European Commission has spent about \u20ac350 million in cyber security research; from 2013 to 2020, \u20ac400 million is earmarked to support key enabling &amp; industrial technologies such as cyber security, privacy and trust technologies, and an additional \u20ac450 million is earmarked for \u2018Secure Societies\u2019 research which includes aspects of cybersecurity.<\/p>\n<p>The following EU-funded projects address the big issues facing cybersecurity: cost, speed and long-term security; helping to keep computer users one step ahead of the hackers, Trojans and viruses plaguing the online world today.\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/europa.eu\/rapid\/press-release_MEMO-12-899_en.htm?locale=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Click here\u00a0<\/a>to read more.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The re-posting of this\u00a0analysis\u00a0is part of a cross-posting collaboration with MediaLaws: Law and Policy of the Media in\u00a0a Comparative Perspective.
