ABSTRACT
The major goal of this manuscript is to present propaganda activities of the so
called Islamic State in the Internet from the perspective of the NATO/EU states’
security. It was based both on up-to-date think-tank reports, as well as al-Hayat
Media Center productions currently available in the Internet. This article argues
that the Islamic State online propaganda is much more sophisticated than common
methods used so far by cyberjihadists. Therefore, its efficiency is usually much
higher. The manuscript should contribute to the better understanding of the
Internet as a domain, which due to its specificity, may determine the character
and scale of Islamic terrorism threat.
