  • Abstract
    In this paper the Slovene perspective on the perception of cyber crime in terms of awareness and fear is presented. On the basis of theoretical knowledge the online survey has been prepared and conducted. The results of the perception of cyber crime and its understanding have been analyzed. The results and their interpretations are the basis for further work with the cyberspace users. Based on the results some guidelines on how to raise awareness, reduce risk and thereby reduce the fear of cyber crime in Slovenia are given.
