We identify and track down the threat – wherever it might occur. We investigate and assess the threat posed by terrorist and violent extremist groups online and inform our outreach to priority at-risk platforms and research programme.
We facilitate and share industry best practice between tech platforms and expert organisations. We work with tech platforms to improve their counterterrorism policy, content moderation, transparency reporting, and regulatory compliance.
We build data-driven technical tools to facilitate disruption of terrorist content online. We rely on innovative approaches to build platforms that are used by tech platforms and those entrusted with countering terrorism online.
Tracking, analysing and disrupting terrorist behaviour online.
The OSINT team provides threat intelligence for informed and proportionate action against terrorists on the internet. We operate at the frontier of the internet, leveraging investigative approaches and tools to track and respond to online terrorist networks.
Terrorist actors are adept at exploiting emerging technologies, adapting their tactics, and maintaining an online presence despite counterterrorism efforts. Our investigations and findings enable practitioners in this space to stay ahead of the evolving threat, and inform effective and proportionate responses.
Insight and understanding of the online terrorist threat.
The Research and Analysis team generates a deeper understanding of terrorist and violent extremist exploitation of the internet. Using Tech Against Terrorism’s insight, experience, and data, we inform and shape evidence-based online counterterrorist responses.
By forging a better understanding of the online terrorist threat, the Research and Analysis team aims to shape impactful responses across governments and industry. Our dynamic research agenda is designed to elevate the discussion and offer fresh ideas for online counterterrorism.
We draw on the insight and data accumulated by Tech Against Terrorism and its experience in confronting terrorist and violent extremist exploitation of the internet.
Building resilient online counterterrorism responses.
The Policy Advisory and Response team works with tech companies and policymakers to have a positive and sustainable impact on global online counterterrorism.
We encourage resilient and human rights compliance online counterterrorism policy responses.
We provide policy-advisory services to tech companies to develop effective risk mitigation strategies against terrorist exploitation of their services.
We advocate for legal responses to terrorist use of the internet that are evidence-based and consider the diversity of the tech sector, and we facilitate discussion between policymakers and tech platforms.
Our activities are underpinned by our core values of human rights, freedom of expression, and transparency.
