See how terrorism and cyber threats cross borders, how they affect people, and what individuals, governments and international partners can do.

• Transnational terrorism

  Terrorist threats can cross borders through ideas, support and coordination, even when the person planning violence stays in one country.

• Cyber threats

  Cyber threats can compromise the privacy, accuracy or availability of digital information and services.

• Security impacts

  Security incidents can harm lives, livelihoods, privacy, services and trust, with different effects for different people.

• Individual vigilance

  People can notice, check and report warning signs, while taking practical steps to protect themselves and others.

• Domestic security measures

  Governments use specialist powers, people and resources to prevent threats, detect incidents, respond and support recovery.

• International cooperation

  Countries can combine information and capabilities to address threats that no country can fully investigate or manage alone.
