  • Cybersecurity and Threats Cyberterrorism and the Order Today
    Cybersecurity and Threats Cyberterrorism and the Order Today Rebant Juyal* The ever-growing dependence of man on cybernetworks has unbridled a modish genre of cyberthreat called cyberterrorism. The pervasive cyberspace has provided an advantageous operational frontier to the terrorists for executing cyberattacks on critical infrastructures, spreading hate propaganda over the Internet and using it for recruitment, planning and effecting terror attacks. Furthermore, it has proliferated terror configurations and metamorphosed terror operations. There is the most urgent need to secure our cyberspace from such formidable cyberthreats. Formulating a cybersecurity strategy through international cooperation is a desideratum to confront mushrooming cyberterrorism which poses a severe threat to global security and current economic scenario. This article examines cyberterrorism as a component of cyberthreats and further analyses the constitutional obligation of the state to protect cyberspace. Keywords: Cybersecurity, threats, Cyberterrorism, cybersecurity cooperation, Right to Trade and Business, cyber militancy, state sovereignty The Internet is a prime example of how terrorists can behave in a truly transnational way; in response, States need to think and function in an equally transnational manner.1 – Ban Ki-moon * The author is a final year law student at Guru Gobind Singh Indraprastha University, Delhi.
