Summary/Abstract: One of the significant challenges for 21st century society is the security of energy infrastructure in the event of energy-related terrorist attacks. Long-term energy disruptions can not only annihilate several essential services for a community but can also create societal chaos. This paper aims to analyze the implications of energy terrorist attacks for the national security, economic security and cohesion of a state that has been involved in an energy terrorist attack. Policy interventions and international cooperation are recommended to counter energy-related terrorist attacks. Security strategies must protect energy infrastructure against energy-related terrorist attacks. Perhaps the most important aspect is the multidimensional approach to energy-related terrorist attacks, which must combine efforts at governmental, societal, state and international levels. Such an approach should aim to make society resilient to such terrorist attacks, but also to mitigate the long-term consequences of such attacks on the population.
