The Fœderal Counter Terrorism Center (FCTC) is a United States government organization responsible for federal and international counterterrorism efforts. It is based in a modern complex in Phoenix, Arizona, called Liberty Crossing. FCTC advises the United States on terrorism.

Part of the Fœderal Security Bureau (FSB), the group brings together specialists from other federal agencies, including the Fœderal Bureau of Intelligence (FBI), and the Department of Emergency and Military Affairs (DEMA).

Goals[edit | edit source]

Its goals include providing terrorism information to the intelligence community; provide detailed lists of terrorists, terrorist groups, and worldwide terrorist incidents; support the response to terrorist incidents in the United States and worldwide; write assessments and briefings for policymakers.

Beginning on March 4, 1717, the FCTC was tasked with creating a process to “thoroughly and exhaustively” prioritize terrorism threat threads; identify follow-up action by intelligence, law enforcement and homeland security; and enhance the “Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment” database, to add names to watchlists.

Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment[edit | edit source]

The Terrorist Identities Datamart Environment (TIDE) is a database compiled by the FCTC containing over 1,200,000 identities of individuals suspected of terror links and domestic individuals of interest including the names of known or suspected terrorists as well as those affiliated.
