Abstract
The increasing development of terrorist acts has led to a new form of terrorism, namely the spread of terrorist ideas and movements on social media, known as cyber terrorism. This study employs normative legal research with a conceptual and statutory approach. The findings confirm that the main issue related to the rise of cyber terrorism is the widespread dissemination of terrorist ideas and movements on social media, influencing the younger generation. One weakness in Indonesian legislation is the lack of comprehensive legal policy for preventive efforts to control the spread of terrorist content on social media. Digital counter-terrorism as a preventive strategy aims to minimize the spread of terrorist ideas and movements on social media through effective legal policies and community involvement, particularly of millennials.
