Using SNA, the study investigates URL-sharing within the TechHaven server to uncover how terrorist propaganda spreads across platforms and sustains its digital ecosystem. The URL-sharing flow within TechHaven illustrates the principles of the Multiplatform Communication Paradigm (MCP) and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/time-to-be-realistic-about-swarmcast2-0-by-ali-fisher\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Swarmcast 2.0<\/a> architecture. This framework ensures persistence and resilience through a distributed network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The analysis of the pro-IS TechHaven server on Rocket.Chat reveals an interconnected network with 1,592 nodes and 89,992 edges, despite a low network density. This low density prioritises security over efficiency, enhancing the system&#8217;s resilience against external takedowns. Key domains such as chat.techhaven.to (Rocket.Chat) and t.me (Telegram) emerge as central nodes, aligning with the Swarmcast 2.0 model, which ensures adaptability and redundancy.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"410\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket-410x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-12119\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket-410x1024.png 410w, https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket-120x300.png 120w, https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket-768x1920.png 768w, https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Infografica-Ultras-URL-Rocket-819x2048.png 819w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 410px) 100vw, 410px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At the 14th Illicit Network Workshop hosted by the University of Leiden, ITSTIME presented findings from its study: &#8220;Navigating Beyond the Digital Safe Haven: Mapping the Course of Salafi-Jihadi Online Movements Outside Rocket.Chat Through URL Social<a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/mapping-the-course-of-salafi-jihadi-online-movements-outside-rocket-chat-by-a-bolpagni-a-fisher-g-porrino\/\">Read More&#8230;<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":11129,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[623,625,624],"class_list":["post-11124","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-terrorism","tag-rocket-chat","tag-salafi","tag-sna"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11124","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11124"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11124\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12120,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11124\/revisions\/12120"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11129"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11124"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11124"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.itstime.it\/w\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11124"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
