A further 516,000 computer misuse reports, making up the rest of the year&#8217;s total, concerned &#8220;unauthorised access to personal information&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>These latest statistics are, however, drawn from the Crime Survey of England and Wales, meaning they should be taken as an indication rather than authoritative measure of crime levels. Rather than being a measure of raw reports, Office of National Statistics spreadsheet wranglers interpret and filter the data before it is compiled, as an ONS blog post from 2019 <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ons.gov.uk\/peoplepopulationandcommunity\/crimeandjustice\/articles\/improvingvictimisationestimatesderivedfromthecrimesurveyforenglandandwales\/2019-01-24\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">explained<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>The stats themselves are gathered by interviewing victims of crime, with so-called &#8220;victimless&#8221; crimes <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ons.gov.uk\/peoplepopulationandcommunity\/crimeandjustice\/methodologies\/userguidetocrimestatisticsforenglandandwales#crime-survey-for-england-and-wales-csew\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">being excluded<\/a> along with crimes against students, pensioners in care homes, businesses and the public sector.<\/p>\n<p>George Glass, head of threat intel at infosec biz Redscan, opined that these exclusions made the survey of limited use, saying in a statement: &#8220;Despite huge reported increases in hacking and malware incidents, I still think this latest Crime in England and Wales report paints an inaccurate picture of computer misuse and online fraud cases in the UK.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Computer misuse was <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2017\/01\/20\/cybercrime_stats_uk\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">first included in the CSEW&#8217;s full survey in 2017<\/a>, following years of trials.<\/p>\n<p>The bundling of fraud together with computer misuse offences shows how government tends to view &#8220;hacking&#8221; as an economic matter. From <i>The Register<\/i>&#8216;s previous court case coverage, computer-focused criminality tends to be a bit broader than just money-oriented crooks stealing cash.<\/p>\n<p>Britain&#8217;s infosec industry has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theregister.com\/2020\/01\/22\/clrnn_computer_misuse_act_reform_call\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">repeatedly called for the Computer Misuse Act to be reformed<\/a>, pointing out that the law criminalises some threat intel research in a way that allows other countries to surge ahead of the UK sector. So far these pleas have fallen on deaf ears in government.<\/p>\n<p>In recent computer misuse news, North Yorkshire Police <a target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" href=\"https:\/\/northyorkshire.police.uk\/news\/businesses-urged-to-be-cyber-secure-after-former-employee-accessed-company-records\/\">claimed<\/a>, without providing corroborating details, to have cautioned a man for using Tor to access his former employer&#8217;s cloud-based systems.
