Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hacking of information systems is considered a computer crime as it involves unauthorized access to computer systems with the intention of stealing or manipulating sensitive information. Deletion of records by an employee who is unaware of operating procedures may be a mistake but not a crime. Poorly written programs resulting in data losses and loss of data as a result of flooding are not intentional acts and are usually considered accidents or natural disasters.
