Retired FBI agent and self-styled futurist Bill Tafoya told delegates the 
global cost of cyber crime and cyber terrorism had already reached 
trillions of dollars, but most incidents went unreported.
So far, most of the attacks had come from amateur operators, but this would 
inevitably change as organized crime groups focused more of their efforts 
towards online activities.
If you put the right skill set together, you could do significant damage, 
he told the conference. It was only a matter of time before it happened.
He cited a recent example from the US where an organized crime group hacked 
into a hospital computer system and administered a fatal dose of drugs to a 
patient. Law enforcement agencies were well placed to deal with traditional 
crimes but struggled when faced with this type of new threat. FROM
