The Institute for European Studies has launched a Blog to support its research into the topic of Terrorist Radicalisation & Recruitment on the Internet. The purpose of the project is to identify what would be involved in providing some means of preventing European citizens from accessing terrorist radical and recruiting content on the web.

This research includes looking into the legal, social, economic and technical requirements and ramifications implementing such a system would have to support this goal. BH Consulting, through our senior consultant Brian Honan, has already provided some feedback to the Institute on the technical implications and how feasible it would be to try and block access to such content.

The Institute is eager to hear the views of others and to get their insight and input into this important topic. If you have any feedback on this subject then please access the Institute’s Blog and share your thoughts.
