Abstract
Terrorism, having spread its roots throughout the world, has become a grieve matter of concern globally. In simple words, terrorism is the use of violence to create fear and alarm. Terrorism being a major challenge, the paper deals with how terrorism can be combated using the fastest growing and most effective technology of computer science, i.e. cloud computing. An understanding of the history, nature and mechanism will contribute towards the eradication of terrorism. Here, we will use a directed graph that will provide us with an interconnected network of terrorists’ activities based on the data collected from the Global Terrorism Database (GTD) for a certain period. We will develop an analytical model which would connect the distributed data on terrorists’ activities to aid decision-making by counter-terrorist security agents around the world.
