Today's NCIS

The threat landscape facing American military forces worldwide continues to evolve at an unprecedented rate. The dangers are more complex, wider-ranging, and more blurred than ever before. NCIS is now called upon more frequently by Navy and Marine Corps commanders to respond to this growing threat while continuing to fulfill its traditional mission.

To meet this challenge, NCIS has adopted a far-reaching strategic plan and implemented a modernization initiative.

Strategic Transformation Highlights:

  • NCIS has gone far beyond the traditional, reactive law enforcement model and adopted a proactive and integrated strategy designed to emphasize force protection and the operational readiness of the Department of the Navy.
  • NCIS has realigned its own organizational structure to parallel its Prevent Terrorism/Protect Secrets/Reduce Crime goals, creating a new Counterterrorism Department to complement its Counterintelligence and Criminal Investigations disciplines.
  • NCIS has created the Multiple Threat Alert Center (MTAC) a state-of-the-art hub for the collection, analysis, and dissemination of information related to terrorist, criminal, and intelligence activity.
  • NCIS has also repositioned its forces in the field, shifting even more personnel to forward deployed areas overseas and priority programs, installations, and assets within the United States.
  • Finally, NCIS has embarked upon a modernization program, seeking especially to equip agents with enhanced secure information and mobile communications networks.
