- Abstract
As the latest hybridization of cyberspace and terrorism in the twenty-first century, cyberterrorism transcends national boundaries and poses an unprecedented non-traditional threat to any entities accessible to the Internet, including governments, corporates and civilians. The Shanghai Cooperation Organization is among the first international organizations which have combined anti-terrorist cooperation with Internet governance. However, few attempts have been made to analyze the cause of cyberterrorism in SCO members systematically and quantitatively. This study built up a connection between domestic situations and the occurrence of cyberterrorism by computational method which included factor analysis, OLS regression and spatial regression. Results suggested that three significant factors underlying cyberterrorism in SCO countries are Internet Factor, Dimensional Factor and Social Factor. In addition, the comparison of their relative influence is: Internet Factor the most significant, Social Factor slightly less powerful and Dimensional Factor much less remarkable than the former two. Theoretical and practical contributions are also discussed in this paper.
