As the Internet becomes more pervasive in all areas of human endeavor, individuals or groups can use the anonymity afforded by cyberspace to threaten citizens, specific groups (i.e. with membership based on ethnicity or belief), communities and entire countries, without the inherent threat of capture, injury, or death to the attacker that being physically present would bring.

Are Information Technology workers professional ?yes or no?

Yes, because they are also people who work for a job that is not bad and cannot harm other people. I think that every worker is a professional as long as they not doing their jobs in bad purpose. In our generation today there are many IT workers it's because there many technology has been created. Since, they are one of the people who studied about technologies. IT workers are capable to work in a job for technology for they now have a knowledge about it. They analyze how they deal with the threat of technical obsolescence. It was found that most IT workers find it stressful to constantly update their technical skills and they used different ways to cope with. IT products and services and the workers who provide them are found throughout the economy. The largest group is employed in computer services firms, but large fractions also work in manufacturing, financial industries, government, and retail and wholesale trade. That is why the demand for every IT workers are getting higger.
