Abstract

The final stage in the execution of the majority of the current waves of terrorist attacks is in the form of an intruder positioning a bomb in the proximity of the target. While terrorists may not directly target IT systems, attacks against computer facilities do happen. These attacks are in addition to telecommunication-based attacks and fall into the realm of physical security.
