Netherlands Major Base for Cyber Criminality


After the United States, the Netherlands is the major base in the world for cyber criminality. About 15% of malicious software originates in the country. One important reason that so many distributers of viruses operate from the Netherlands is because of its very good internet structure. According to the leading research organization TNO, the cost of cyber criminality to Dutch society is at least 10 billion Euro. One out of three Dutch internet users has been a victim of a virus attack in the last half year. This results from data of Kaspersky, an authority in the field of cyber crime.
