( Pp. 176-180)

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to study new ways of the emergence of terrorism and ways to counter it.
Terrorism is an attempt on the life and health of citizens, public safety, infrastructure and public authorities, the natural, information environment, important officials.
Modern terrorists are increasingly taking advantage of the Internet. Most often, recruitment is carried out through social networks, where there is an opportunity not only to transmit a huge flow of information, but also feedback from any interested user. In this case, it is quite difficult for law enforcement agencies to track the information, especially to do it quickly and on time. As a result, it is not always possible to stop illegal actions in time. According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and information in the media, measures to counter terrorism are carried out regularly. In addition, the legislator is constantly refining the legal framework. For example, an extrajudicial procedure has recently been adopted to restrict access to Internet resources containing calls for mass riots, extremist activities, as well as incitement to ethnic or religious strife, participation in terrorist activities, public mass events held in violation of the established order. Despite the counteraction measures taken by the law enforcement agencies of the Russian Federation, the number of terrorist crimes is constantly growing. This is due not only to the aggravated socio-economic situation and the country's foreign policy, but also to the insufficient experience of law enforcement officers, the lack of a sufficient number of special technical means.
It is concluded that the Internet helps terrorists to influence the population psychologically, for this purpose specialists are involved in the case. It is worth noting that terrorist groups often include people with certain professional skills and a good education, and a comprehensive approach is required to effectively counter terrorist activity through a worldwide network. In addition, it requires the mobilization of considerable forces of state bodies and individual citizens.
