WASHINGTON, DC / ACCESSWIRE / October 6, 2020 / To mark the 17th annual National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) has launched a redesign of its website for its Cyber & Jihad (CJL) project.
Since 2007, the CJL has been monitoring, tracking, translating, and researching cyber jihad originating from the Middle East, Iran, South Asia, and North and West Africa. Consistently on the forefront of research into terrorist use of encryption, social media, drone technology, and hacktivism, it works with Capitol Hill, the Department of Justice, and other government agencies, as well as with tech companies and technology industry leaders. With a focus on innovating and experimenting with possible solutions for stopping cyber jihad, it works to advance legislation and initiatives on the federal and state level, supporting the drafting and enforcement of measures that will serve as precedents for further action. The redesigned CJL website features a new section showcasing the latest analysis reports by MEMRI's top experts.
The seminal CJL August 2019 study The Coming Storm: Terrorists Using Cryptocurrency preceded, and impacted, the U.S. government's August 2020 seizure of millions in cryptocurrency from Al-Qaeda, ISIS, and Hamas fundraising campaigns. Recent CJL research publications include Jihadi Use Of Bots On The Encrypted Messaging Platform Telegram and Documenting Jihadi Use Of Encrypted Messaging App WhatsApp - Part II: October 2018-June 2020.
CJL research has been frequently cited in The New York Times, Washington Post, The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, CNN, WIRED, Foreign Policy, USA Today, Los Angeles Times, Military Times, Politico, Newsweek, Axios, VICE, Forbes, MarketWatch, The Cipher Brief, PYMTS, AMBCrypto, Canaltech Hipertextual, The Block, Fox News, Washington Examiner, Washington Times, The Hill, New York Post, VOA News, Sydney Morning Herald, France24, National Post, The Guardian, The Daily Telegraph, Daily Mail, The Sun, and South China Morning Post, among other leading media.
