Due to open by July, the new headquarters for the National Police Agency's ``cyber-cop'' squad signals growing concern about computer security as more and more Japanese join the global on-line revolution. And while cases of unauthorized computer snooping in Japan are still fewer than in the United States, a sharp jump in computer-related crimes in recent years has rattled authorities in Tokyo. .... Breaking into a computer system isn't even a crime in Japan, which sets it apart from most other major industrialized nations. .... Worry about the potential for computer-generated chaos has prompted Tokyo to draft legislation to outlaw unauthorized access. A bill is expected to be submitted in the current session of Parliament, which ends in June. .... The problem is still relatively new to Japan. In 1997 _ the most recent year for which data is available _ the number of high-tech crimes known to the Japanese police climbed to 263 cases, up from 178 cases the previous year and just 32 cases in 1993. ... Japanese police suspect the true number of computer crimes is several times higher than the official figures, and note that many businesses keep security problems under wraps to avoid negative publicity. ....
