Abstract

The modern world is witnessing a huge technological information technology revolution, and a remarkable development in all aspects of life. This development has played a vital role in facilitating and accelerating transactions and others around the world. Despite the advantages of digital technology, there are those who exploit it to serve their personal whims in illegal ways. Because it is a vast, comprehensive and large world that brings together many people from around the world, it is called the virtual world, because it brings together a huge number of people from around the world in one place virtually. Cyber terrorism is one of the most dangerous threats to national security, which has prompted the international community to mobilize its efforts through its organizations to reduce terrorism in general and cyber terrorism in particular. Issues related to terrorism have become a serious concern because they pose a threat to national security. It can be said that the main reason for the spread of cyber terrorism is that the terrorist does not need an explosive or high-tech tool to attack the victim, but only needs to transmit viruses or malware. All of this helps the terrorist to be anonymous, which reduces the risk of him falling into the hands of the authorities.
