As our lives become increasingly connected, cyberspace has never been more vulnerable. Hackers are taking advantage of both technical flaws and human mistakes to gain access to sensitive information, often demanding ransom and causing widespread disruption. From businesses and government agencies to schools and individuals, no one is immune to the growing threat of cyberattacks.
This eye-opening documentary shares the personal stories of those who have fallen victim to online crime, revealing how these incidents have deeply impacted their lives. While headlines often focus on the massive financial toll—estimated at six trillion dollars annually—the emotional and psychological effects on victims are just as severe. With cyberattacks on the rise worldwide, this film explores the real human consequences of a global digital crisis.
