From that point on Hollywood has been developing such popular films as Tron, War Games and Real Genius — all the way up to more recent films like Die Hard 4. Of course, how could we all forget Sandra Bullock who plays a software engineer who loses her identity to digital thieves in the 1995 film The Net?

So, the reality is that all of these films are a bit dated and cliched about cyber crime. We wonder if we will see more films that involve the truth behind cyber security: a hero fighting an unseen organized crime group, or hackers from a rogue nation? Eitherway, Hollywood always has an interesting — if not somewhat out-of-touch with reality — take on things. But who are we to judge? Perhaps Hollywood is helping raise more awareness around this issue? We welcome all thoughts, comments and feedback!
