Abstract
The article examines the doctrinal aspects of understanding cyber terrorism as an atypical manifestation (form) of traditional terrorism, actualized in the light of the intensive development and widespread dissemination of information and communication technologies (ICT) in the modern world. The conclusion is substantiated that cyber terrorism is a conceptually relevant concept, which is perceived either as a way of committing a terrorist act (truncated understanding), or as any terrorist crimes that are committed through the use of information and communication technologies (broad understanding). Analysis and generalization of scientific positions regarding the development of an optimal definition of cyber terrorism made it possible to define this phenomenon of social reality as the illegal use of information and communication technologies in relation to computer information, computer systems and networks in critical segments of the state and in the private sector, which create the danger of death of people, causing significant property damage or the onset of other socially dangerous consequences, with the aim of whipping up fear and tension, as well as influencing the authorities for political or other, inherent in the ideology of terrorism, motives.
