Background Information

Under the modern condition any device being on the web can be used as a hacking tool. Downloading
and installing the hacker’s software on an object is simple task and the entire internet is overwhelmed
with so handy tutorials, hacker’s forums and similar online content. In other words, it’s easy to become a
cyber criminal and some experiences suggest that even the secondary school students can deal with
skill being sufficient to make the first steps in such a crime area. The tendency shows cybercrime
underworld recruits new members at that age and once thrown in such a business they can stay there
for a long period of time. Average cyber criminal has a potential to turn into the other crime areas which
makes him getting the hybrid threat. Typical case in criminology is that anyone with that skill can be
suitable for drug trafficking, financial crime, human smuggling and even terrorism. Preparing the high-
tech campaign takes time and effort and many crime organizations know how to take advantage over
their cyber warriors. Only one hacking machine can cover a plenty of targets making out of attacked
devices a grid which receives commands from a centralized workstation being capable to exploit all
available vulnerabilities within an hour or two. The developed economies have a tendency to cope with
smart technologies which means their peripherals communicate through TCP/IP channel and not via
cables which is the case in the previous generation of computers. That means such a centralized system
copes with network sharing capacities putting any device into grid and assigning it its IP address. [1-4]
The modern marketplace offers some solutions on the web which can be applied to discover IP addresses
and the other details in the network 4.0. The skillful hackers can demonstrate a wide spectrum of
capabilities and sometimes it is a challenge to prevent cyber operation. The law enforcement agencies
need to work smart in order to cut the information exchange in the cyberspace and carefully choose a
moment to find out when the threat’s plan is uncovered and further open for being mitigated. The next
generations hacking challenges can be far more notorious than at present, but cyber industry yet needs
to think about advancements which are at least a step ahead of the threat.

High-Tech Operation Challenges

Cyber technologies capture the majority of the information-communication systems which serve to deliver
the findings from one point to another. Those technologies are highly sensitive to hacker’s attacks as
they can be approached from anywhere if they are in the network. Professional defense equipment can
expose the devices even if they are not on the web, while the ordinary hacking tools are useful only if the
object is online. The nightmare to hackers is once they access the cyberspace they will leave a trace
within such an asset. The modern best practice in criminology shows that those cases can be resolved
in an investigation fashion as there is the strong skill with the authorities worldwide. In addition, some
fundamental researches across the globe can offer the helpful inputs to the entire high-tech industry. The
cyber industry is so powerful drive which role is to offer a betterment of many coping with cutting-edge
systems. It’s time of cyber-physical revolution and the majority of current professionals deal with skill to
improve and innovate what already exists, as well as provide some novel paths in their area of expertise.
The cyber campaigns can offer a wide domain of the potential threats to people, businesses and
