Using data derived from an exhaustive eight-year study, a new USIP
Press book, Terror on the Internet, provides an eye-opening account of
the sharp increase in the terrorist presence on the Internet,
exploring how terrorists use the Internet to carry out their plans on
a daily basis to plan and launch attacks, raise funds, recruit members
and publicize their successes.

The book also identifies and evaluates counterterrorism efforts and
assesses the actual threat of cyberterrorism as well as the risks
associated with government efforts to constrain cyberterror.

Please join the book's author, Gabriel Weimann, and distinguished
expert Bruce Hoffman for a discussion and visual presentation of these
issues and their implications for U.S. policies toward cyberspace.
Presentations will be followed by Q&A.
