Abstract

Number of terrorist attacks are increasing rapidly around the globe and world is facing a constant need to strengthen counter-terror activities. Information about terrorist organizations/terrorists can be gathered by exploring internet. Enormous data on internet can be examined by sophisticated data mining tools to find useful information. Social Network Analysis tools such as Centrality Principles can be effectively used in this area. This article shows the usefulness of different centrality principles in analyzing and understanding terrorist networks.
