Domestic and foreign approaches to the development of conceptual apparatus in the field of combating cyberterrorism and proposals for improving this normative process

In modern conditions, the legal framework should facilitate an adequate and timely response to the latest challenges and threats, including cyber terrorism. Currently, both in domestic legal science and foreign, there is not so much research devoted to the conceptual apparatus in the field of cyber terrorism, despite the fact that the very emergence of terminology associated with cyber terrorism dates back to the 1980s years. Currently, many experts note the absence of a clearly formulated concept of the type of crime under consideration, which in turn leads to many legislative gaps in the fight against cyber terrorism in a number of world powers. And this is completely understandable, since cyber terrorism began to be thoroughly studied only at the beginning of the new millennium. Today, the significant and inhibiting importance in the field of international cooperation in the field of countering cyber terrorism is due to a lack of understanding by a number of countries of the full significance of the issues under consideration. As a result, some states have not yet developed a legislative framework for countering cyberterrorism. In this regard, at present, the study of the problems of the main approach of the legislative framework in the field of cyberterrorism, both in our country and abroad, becomes especially relevant, both for legal science and law enforcement practice. The identified problematic issues actualize the importance and need for such a study, and the subsequent rethinking of both foreign and domestic conceptual apparatus in the field of countering cyber terrorism, as well as the development of proposals in the field of norm-setting activities to combat cyber terrorism.
