Utilization of information by NCTC
The National Counterterrorism Center (NCTC) is located in U.S., and is commonly
referred to as an organization, which has the sole responsibility of handling national as well
as international efforts related to that of counterterrorism (Lynch, 2016). This organization is
solely based upon the Liberty Crossing, which refers to a modern complex near the Tysons
Corner belonging to McLean, Virginia. NCTC is the only organization, which advices United
States in every little matter that is related to terrorism.
FBI’s New York field has got some information related to a suspected move of a
terrorist from that of the New York City to Lahore, located in Pakistan. The New York field
also contains the additional information regarding the meeting of this particular terrorist with
that of the other terrorists in Pakistan, itself. Hence, with all of the information, NCTC can
put a bar on all of the outgoing international flights for at least a week or keep a check upon
all of the outgoing passengers to Pakistan (Nacos, 2016). Any suspects on the airport or the
seaways will be procured and kept under observation until and unless the truth comes out
from that suspected person.
Function of NCTC with USIC
NCTC performs five of the main functions with the USIC as a provision of support
towards the nation’s efforts towards CT. This Center has been authorized to have the access
into all of the existing information related to terrorism, which is held completely by the USG.
The particular authorities belonging to that of the NCTC effectively bridges the divide
between the all of the related foreign as well as the domestic intelligence, hence providing an
allowance to the particular center to bring the existing whole of the approach of the
government to its limited area belonging entirely to the mission (Cronin, 2015).
