Internet security software provider Finjan (www.finjan.com) announced on Friday that it has just published the 2008 cybercrime figures from Japan which reveals a 15.5 percent year-on-year annual growth.” Anecdotal evidence suggests that the volume and value of cybercrime has soared again in 2008 and, with the current economic recession, we fully expect the number of Internet scams, hacks and malware-driven infections to increase even faster in 2009,” says Ben-Itzhak, Finjan Chief Technology Officer.
