CHARACTERIZATION OF THE "LONE WOLVES"

Lone wolf" terrorism is more difficult to predict than group terrorism, and it is not a new phenomenon because it dates back centuries.The manner and timing of "lone wolf" terrorism creates uncertainty, which hampers tracking, as well as the process of self-radicalization and attack.The problem of detection and surveillance makes it necessary to develop new strategies in an effort to identify the operational resources available to them.It is important to determine whether the attacks are suicidal or intended to be captured once the target is reached.Tactical knowledge, logistical resources and contacts must be established in order to prepare and execute a terrorist action on his own.The virtual world is an open and available source of information for "lone wolves".When the "lone wolf" acts, he acts on his own initiative without logistical support, and if his criminal action is successful, he can serve as a model to be imitated and even surpassed in the number of victims.
