TerrorismTracker A definitive global terrorism database
The essential resource for tracking and analysing terrorism worldwide
TerrorismTracker records every terrorist incident and plot reported in open sources since January 2007. Updated daily, incidents and plots are geolocated, summarised and indexed by 17 different categories for rapid and up-to-date research, and structured analysis.

TerrorismTracker is updated seven days a week by research analysts using a variety of tools and a highly defined methodology to ensure current and comprehensive coverage.
