The Steven E. Stern Workshop on

Cyber Terrorism

The Steven E. Stern Workshop on Cyber Terrorism

Recent years, more than ever, have seen the establishment and growth of the cyber world. Offering anything to anyone, the cyberspace has become an increasingly complex and striated phenomenon. The option of anonymity and selectivity in access, while simultaneously allowing global connectivity, and the outstanding dependency of today’s modern world on the cyberspace, have made this arena the new forefront in terrorism. The workshop will attempt to understand the threats emanating from the cyberspace, the ramifications (legal, governing, ethical, and others), as well as the counter-terrorist options available.
