The document discusses developing a conceptual framework for cyber terrorism using a mixed methods research approach. It proposes combining qualitative and quantitative methodologies to discover a theory for cyber terrorism and verify the framework. Specifically, it recommends using a grounded theory method involving constant data collection, comparison, and analysis to generate the framework, followed by quantitative testing and validation. The document provides details on the knowledge management architecture and multi-step research methodology involving initiation, data selection, collection, analysis, and conclusion to systematically develop and conclude the cyber terrorism theory.
