• Bar on Terrorist Financing This is the second most important weapon with TO. There should be cooperation and coordination among the world countries and specially with the countries used for hawala money and money laundering. Curb on terrorist funding can immunise the world from terrorism.
• Regulation on Social Media Social media is also a tool which is used by the TO to recruit new terrorists by spreading their ideologies. Their should be a regulation on the internet of the contents related to terrorism.
