Intelligence Command
The ISP Intelligence Command was established in 2009 to support ISP’s commitment to public safety through information sharing and intelligence-led policing. The Intelligence Command is comprised of the Statewide Terrorism and Intelligence Center (STIC) and the Joint Terrorism Task Force (JTTF).
The STIC, the state designated fusion center, opened in 2003 and seeks to improve information sharing with and between public safety officials. As a member of the National Network of Fusion centers, STIC personnel have the ability to quickly obtain and share information with partners regarding national trends and critical incidents. The STIC’s all-crimes and all-hazards approach has led to the development of public safety outreach programs, benefitting the lives of the citizens of Illinois.
The JTTF is a statewide unit within the Intelligence Command. ISP assigns DCI Special Agents to FBI Chicago and Springfield offices. Members of the JTTF partner with the FBI, as well as local, state, and other federal law enforcement personnel, to investigate both international and domestic terrorism incidents, and individuals.
