Research Questions
Question 1
How the advancement of technologies have supported the networks and tactics of terrorist
organizations?
Technology is considered to be the foundation of the modern society but it has also benefited
the terrorist organizations. The modern terrorism is unpredictable and instantaneous because
technology has provided a place where terrorist organizations find resources (Paganini,
2018). The descriptive research will be carried out for carrying out in-depth research in order
to answer the question. The descriptive design assists to describe the research question on the
basis of collected data and information. Both qualitative and quantitative methods will be
used for examining the research question. The quantitative method is being used for
examining the relationship between the variables by using statistics and numbers in order to
explain the findings. The quantitative data shows the increase in terrorism in many countries
of the world. The descriptive design research does not need a hypothesis to start with and the
examination can be carried out from the existing data. The qualitative method will be used for
collecting data from past evidence and events (Yousaf, 2018). It helps to outline question
explaining the issue which needs to be solved. The qualitative information is collected from
