Abstract: Today, intelligence work is unequivocally connected with national security and political stability. Therefore, governments and political leaders rely heavily on the work of intelligence services. The main task of these services is to collect information and data that are important for conducting the country's policy and undertaking various actions in war and peace in order to achieve political and state goals. Terrorism is the greatest threat to the security of the 21st century, but also a challenge in the economic, moral and cultural sense. Although the world has set itself the task of unconditionally dealing with terrorism, it has been shown that the set goal is not so easily achieved. There is no dispute about is that terrorism is a global problem and as such requires international cooperation and exchange of information. Information is a key resource that can help make the fight against terrorism easier. When it comes to information in the security sense, it is clear that intelligence work with the advancement of modern technologies has become extremely important for countering terrorism. For these purposes, there are several databases that record data related to terrorist attacks and terrorist organizations themselves. Publicly available, so-called OSINT data that can be used in the analysis of terrorism are also important. Considering that, the focus of this paper will be the intelligence cycle with reference to modern databases and modern technologies that can be significant in the fight against terrorism, such as the TANGELS platform.
