The most common forms of corporate cybercrime involve one or more of the following:

Spear Phishing

This method involves using other forms of access to gain greater access. A hacker who has already broken into somebody's email can then send a message to somebody else, pretending to be the owner, and convince them to give up sensitive information.

Ransomware

Ransomware is a type of malicious software designed to deny access to files until, or threaten to publish the victim's data unless, a ransom is paid (although there is no guarantee that access will be restored, or that the criminal hacker will destroy the data).

Computer viruses

A computer virus is a type of malicious code or program written to alter the way a computer operates. It is designed to spread from one computer to another (but without the user's knowledge) by:
- Opening an infected email attachment;
- Clicking an infected executable file;
- Visiting an infected website;
- Viewing an infected website advertisement; or - Plugging in infected removable storage devices (e.g. USBs).
