This is a thorough review of the Pentagon's Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office. The mission of the CTTSO is to identify and develop capabilities to combat terrorism and irregular adversaries and to deliver these capabilities to Department of Defense components and interagency partners through rapid research and development, advanced studies and technical innovation, and provision of support to U.S. military operations.

Terror networks are enlarging their labyrinths by embracing transnational criminal organizations, engaging in lawfare and economic warfare, and using social and traditional media to amplify their messages. At the same time, resources that were previously available to counter these irregular adversaries are being reduced or reallocated to address other national security threats.
The Combating Terrorism Technical Support Office (CTTSO) and its programs have existed for almost 30 years rapidly developing the capabilities needed by the combating terrorism community to execute its missions.
Elements charged with combating terrorism will need to increase their efforts to coordinate tactics, techniques, procedures, and technologies to reduce the impact of decreased resources. Increased use of working groups, exercises, and other collaborations are approaches that could assist. CTTSO interagency membership has expanded significantly since 2001. While the number of active projects has remained level, the end user participation on each project has dramatically increased leading to a wider dissemination of successful capabilities.
