Changes of cyber-terrorism: Autonomous terrors and counter-measures

Abstract

Recently many autogenous terrors are occurred in many countries, and this kind of terrors are spread mostly through the Internet. Therefore, there should be regulations and tools to monitor suspicious Internet activities. Recently, due to the increased number of cyber terrors, many countries try to enact regulations against web server misuses. But, the establishment of such laws is slowed by the concerns of privacy of web users. This paper proposed legislative measures against cyber terrors as well as the proposed scheme to collect terror-related information from web servers. The result of this research can reduce overall costs of anti-terror activities in the Internet. © Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg 2007.
