In recent years, the fear of terrorism due to 'Lone Wolf' terrorism is spreading in the United States and Europe. The lone wolf terrorism, which carries out terrorism independently, without an organization behind it, threatens social security around the world. In Korea, those who have explosive national/social dissatisfaction due to damage caused by national policies, and delusional mental disorders can be classified as potential 'Lone Wolf' terrorists. In 'Lone Wolf' terrorism, unlike organized terrorism, it is difficult to identify signs of terrorism in advance, and it is not easy to identify terrorist tools and targets. Therefore, in order to minimize the damage caused by 'Lone Wolf' terrorism, it is necessary to architect an independent monitoring and tracking system for the police's quick response. In this paper, we propose to architect response system that can collect information from organizations that can identify the signs of potential 'Lone Wolf' terrorism, monitor the continuity of abnormal behavior, and determine the types of 'Lone Wolf' terrorism that can happen as continuous abnormal behaviors.

Terrorist organization has shown the trend of secret organization and it is harder to cope with terrorism because of uncertainty of terrorism. Homegrown terrorism is the one, whose preparation, execution and effect are restricted to domestic area. By the way, in the worldwide economic depression, violence and radical demonstration have shown the expansion trends as in Middle East, political revolution of Africa, anti-social resistance of Europe and Wall Street Occupation of USA. Homegrown terrorism is occurring in various countries such as UK and Spain as well as USA. Specialists warn homegrown terrorism in Korea. The purpose of this study was to prospect the possibility of homegrown terrorism that can be generated in the transfer to multi-culture society as various foreigners come to Korea rapidly and suggest the method to cope with the trend. The study analyzed environment and analysis of homegrown terrorism that Korea faces now. The methods to cope with homegrown terrorism are as follows. First, distribution of radical homegrown terrorism via internet should be prevented. Second, the connection between terrorist organization and homegrown terrorist should be prevented. Third, there should be a cooperation among government, residents and religious group. Fourth, there should be an open approach against multi-culture society. Fifth, there should be a systematic control for cause of new conflict. Finally, there should be a long-term approach to cause of new conflict. If we do not make an effort to prevent homegrown terrorism, terrorism environment may face new aspect and national and social cost for it will increase.

세계무역센터를 대상으로 발생한 9.11.테러 이후 세계 테러 동향은 하드타겟에서 경성타겟으로 점차 변화하고 있다. 경성타겟으로 목표 변화는 테러리스트의 접근성, 대상의 상징성, 미디어 집중성을 고루 갖추고 있어, 테러리스트들의 의사 전달이 용이하기 때문이다. 경성타겟으로 변화와 함께 미디어를 활용한 테러 교육으로 자생테러(외로운 늑대)도 증가하고 있다. 2022년 7월 8일, 일본의 다중이용시설인 나라현 야마토사이다이지 역에서 총기테러 사건이 발생하였다. 야마가미 데스야가 자생테러범은 개조한 사제 총기를 일본 전 총리 아베를 향해 발포하여 과다출혈로 사망에 이르게 하였다. 위 사례는 세계 테러 동향의 변화를 반영한 사건으로, 경성타겟을 목표로 한 자생테러 형태를 보여주고 있다. 본 연구에서는 국내 다중이용시설 테러 발생 시 우선적으로 고려해야하는 고위험 테러유형을 도출하고자, 우리나라와 국가 경쟁력이 비슷한 G7국가의 다중이용시설을 대상으로 발생한 테러사례를 통계적으로 분석하여 테러유형별 위험도를 도출하였으며, 다중이용시설을 대상으로 자행되는 고위혐 테러유형의 위협을 차단하기 위한 테러안전관리 대책의 개선사항을 제언하고 있다.

본 현대사회는 문명적, 기술적, 산업적으로 발전함에 따라 그에 상응하는 절도, 폭행, 살인 등 중대범죄의 범위를 벗어나 이념과 국가, 종교, 등 가치관과 사상에 따른 테러 사건 등 국제적인 범죄도 증가하고 있는 추세이며, 국제사회는 중대범죄 및 전쟁의 공포보다 예측 불가능, 막대한 대량 피해를 불러오는 테러에 의한 공포심을 더 비중 있게 대하는 현실에 직면했다. 테러범죄는 개인을 넘어 다중에게 피해를 입힐 수 있는 범죄인만큼 대중에게 경각심과 위험성을 알리기 위해선 구체적이고 손쉽게 이해할 수 있는 명확성이 필요하다. 테러는 수년간 다양한 방식과 개념들이 증식했으며 피해 또한 더 이상 소규모인원, 특정인을 향한 계획적인 범행에서 불특정 다수를 향한 뉴테러리즘식의 테러로 발전하고 있어 안보의 개념에도 영향을 미치고 있다. 따라서 대한민국 역시 언제까지나 테러의 위험성으로부터 안전을 확신할 수 없기 때문에 국내 정서에 맞는 테러 대응방안과 시스템 구축을 통해 뉴테러리즘의 발생 가능성을 염두 하고 대비할 필요가있다.

Today, the structure of terrorist organizations in the form of a variety of network complexity are evolving. However, terrorist organization not combining randomly generated network but preferential attachment a network. So, it's research should be preceded a better understanding about the characteristics and type of terror network for a effective counter-terrorism policy of law enforcement. In addition, the appropriate response strategy have to technique establish in an era of smart media. In particular, homegrown terrorist attacks on unspecified people without boundaries of countries and regions unlike the traditional terrorism. Also, homegrown terrorism are violence and criminal activity by new various of religion, politics, philosophy. Besides the extreme members of homegrown terror networks went grow up through the evolutionary process in the age of smart media. Law enforcement agencies must identify the terrorist network at the national level. Therefore, terror networks evolving in the online space, forming a radical homegrown terror organizations have access to the network. Intelligence community track terrorist networks and to block the negative aspects of the smart media outlets should be considered.

October 31, 2017, a man named Saipov who follows ISIS killed 8 people and injured nearly 20 others by driving his truck to the riverside bicycle path in Manhattan, New York, in an act of terror. June 5, 2017, the Islamic extremist Yacqub Khayre held a woman hostage in a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, before being killed by the police. Various countries around the world including the UK, France, and Germany are in war against terrorism. The terrorists change their target from hard targets such as government officials to vulnerable soft target, intensifying the public's fear, and, unlike in the past when they were organized by governments or organizations, extremists such as ISIS followers are now acting on their own in the act of terrorism. Also, as they use vehicles, pressure cooker, and other objects that can be easily found for terrorism, it is becoming more difficult for the police to prepare against terrorist attacks. Meanwhile, some terrorism researchers argue that conversational techniques (negotiation) used by the police are now of no use, as shown in the cases like 9/11 attacks in 2001 and 2016 Nice attack in France in which the suspects committed terrorist attacks without leaving enough time for the police to take action and that, therefore, tactical suppression techniques need to be developed. Therefore, this study suggested police negotiation techniques are necessary not only for terrorist attacks but also for overall police work, including handling intoxicated people at police station, and proposed ways to activate conversational techniques for police organizations.
