Today, people are more careful about how they live their lives, whom they talk to, whom they exchange contact details with, whom they agree to allow to pay a visit to their houses, whom they have a clandestine affair with and so on. This is true because with the innovation of spy camera technology today, getting more sophisticated and highly improvised, it is now easy for these gadgets to collect audio and video conversations, which is critical to know what people are doing. People can now easily detect if their spouse is having a secret affair, if employees are stealing from them or planning a robbery, know who the stranger is frequently parking his vehicle in front of the house when away for work or a trip out of the country. Everyone is now aware of these technologies, gone are those days that bugs are only limited for top government spies.

Spy Camera Technology Is Converting Violent Criminals To Cyber Criminals

The level of crime in the physical world has reduced drastically, thanks to surveillance cameras in parking lots, streets and public places, crime can be easily reported with security cameras installed in your home even if you’re the far way in another country. The issue of property security is gradually becoming a less concern, rather than employing a security guard to look over your valuables; you can easily watch your CCTV camera and have just one person monitoring all your territories, which you can do yourself.

On the other hand, most crimes committed these days is over the internet or through internet-connected devices. The awareness of spy cam in just about every place can easily scare away a thief or an armed criminal; this is why all attention is now focused on cybercrime. In fact, as you may already know from a speech made from Warren Buffet's statement, he said “Cyber threats are the biggest threat to mankind, bigger than threats from nuclear weapons”, and that’s true. Just in case you don’t know, about 1.76 billion records were leaked in just one month, earlier this year. Criminals are now shying away from spy cameras installed in public and now turning into a more digital way of stealing with the use of Cryptojacking, destructive malware, Phishing e-mails, malicious file extensions via Microsoft office files, SQL injections, data breach and Grayware for mobile and many more. To cut the story short, people are now more worried about a victim of cybercrime than being a victim of violent crime.
