Are terrorist groups who operate in cyberspace 'cyberterrorists'? The answer hinges on what constitutes cyberterrorism. … Admittedly, terrorism is a notoriously difficult concept to define; however, the addition of computers to oldfashioned criminality it is not.

Abstract: Cyber attacks are now becoming more and more complex, more frequent and with increasing destructive effects. Regardless of the type or value of an organization, it affects information of public and private infrastructures. Moreover, private information may be struck by those who hold, even temporarily, various public or dignified functions in a state.

In this order we propose to underline the base aspects to understand the ways of its application.
