CYBER TERRORISM THREATS TO CRITICAL INFRASTRUCTURES NATO’S ROLE IN CYBER DEFENSE

Terrorism and cyber warfare are the two most important threats to humanity, and NATO and the European Union must take steps to create defense systems. The possibility of starting a cyber-war is analyzed with seriousness and professionalism, given that such a conflict would throw the world into chaos unimaginable.

Until today, 90% of attacks that could be considered legal, terrorist-informational, did not reach any legal discussion because “victims” have been thousands of miles of “attackers” positioned in different countries or continents and in most of them as “attackers” were working in the service of states.

The first reported cases of terrorism informational caused by terrorist groups “established” occurred in 1998 in Sri Lanka by “Tamil Tigers” in Serbia in 1999 by one of Serbian policeman who attacked NATO information systems, and of course in the conflict between Hamas and Israel-Hizbulah since 2006.

There are many cases that do not reach the press because of restrictive legislation on terrorism, for example, several attempts to derail fast trains in Japan (Shinkansen), which are fully computerized or in some cases criminal penetration of air traffic control networks.
