Criminology, Terrorism Strategy, Internet, Cyber-TerrorismAbstract
This article analyzes criminological aspects of Internet-based terrorism strategy and propaganda, with a case study on cyber-terrorism in Indonesia. While terrorism has existed since 1949, sophisticated technology has accelerated its dissemination, leading to the rapid growth of cyber-terrorism. Individuals exploit internet networks to spread propaganda, often targeting an unaware public. Criminology aids in understanding these crimes by identifying perpetrators' motivations and profiles, activity characteristics, and operational patterns. This phenomenon generates significant public concern. Consequently, this article aims to foster greater public awareness and provide essential knowledge on how to behave when confronted with online terrorist propaganda, promoting a more vigilant and informed society.
