(1) Computer-related crime poses a major problem for business and government;
(2) Losses for each incident of computer-related crime are potentially astronomical;
(3) The opportunities for computer-related crime in business and government through the introduction of fraudulent records into a computer system, the unauthorized use of computers, the alteration or destruction of computerized information or files, and the stealing of financial instruments, data, and other assets are great;
