One of these phenomena isthe emergence of cyber-terrorism, which is a combination of classic terrorist methods with usage of the latest IT devices. Countries and NGOs are increasingly aware of thethreats coming from the web and take up the fight to protect the most important elements of critical infrastructure that ensures functioning of the state on an efficient level.Cyberterrorist attacks will not replace traditional terrorist activities, however, they will become more complex and will complement each other. Countries must be ready bothon the legal and practical area when a cyberterrorist attack occurs, in order to effectively repel and prosecute their perpetrators.
