What are the advantages for non-state actors of using cyber as a medium for terrorist activities? There are a few, namely operational- attacks can be conducted remotely and anonymously- largely free of state support. This ensures that segmented networks are harder to penetrate and dismantle, and detection is difficult and takes time. Another advantage is the cost of such an operation and the ease of conduction on a variety of targets. For those who doubt how sensational the effect would be, it suffices to look at the chaos that is happening around the cyber domain, and stay ‘reassured’ that media coverage, in case of an attack, would be immense.
