Abstract
This research paper focuses on the importance of the Internet serves for operations of various terrorist groups. The Internet offers terrorists a form of safe haven similar to that of territorial safe haven where they can train, recruit and perform a multitude of operational tasks. Some of the benefits, such as strategic communications and fundraising, can theoretically be conducted almost completely online, while the utility of the Internet for performing other functions is also well established. Clearly, the Internet is being harnessed by terrorist groups. This research details various functions performed by terrorist groups. © EuroJournals Publishing, Inc. 2009.
