Prevent cyberterrorism

The threat of cyberterrorism has drawn increasing attention from the world community and become an important issue in the international fight against terror, an opinion piece in People's Daily said on Wednesday.

The rapid development of Internet technology has brought profound changes to the way information is disseminated, and cyberspace has become a strategic front competed for by countries around the world and an important tool enabling terrorist groups to conduct their hideous acts.

Last week, the United Nations Security Council adopted a resolution, which, for the first time, makes explicit requirements for all countries to employ specific measures to crack down on cyberterrorism.
