NCIS' Mission: Prevent Terrorism
The Combating Terrorism Directorate directs NCIS support for efforts aimed at detecting, deterring, and disrupting terrorism against Department of Navy personnel and assets worldwide.
The Combating Terrorism Directorate brings a wide array of offensive and defensive capabilities to the mission of combating terrorism.
Offensively, from the counterterrorism side, NCIS conducts investigations and operations aimed at interdicting terrorist activities.
Defensively, from the antiterrorism side, NCIS supports key Department of Navy leaders with protective services and performs vulnerability assessments of military installations and related facilities—including ports, airfields, and exercise areas to which naval expeditionary forces deploy.
