He also warned that IS would try to target nuclear power stations or air traffic control systems with cyber attacks.
And he claimed they could pay Russian hackers to do the work.
Mr de Kerchove, who works with Europe’s security services and governments, said: “The United Kingdom has identified 20,000 to 35,000 radicals.
"Of these, 3,000 are worrying for MI5, and of those 500 are under constant and special attention.
“France has 17,000. Spain many less, but more than 5,000. In Belgium almost 500 have been to Syria and there are around 2,000 radicals or more.”
He said there had been no recorded cases of cyberterrorism “in the sense of penetrating the systems of nuclear power stations, prisons or aerospace”.
