Terrorist Screening Center

The Terrorist Screening Center (TSC) is a U.S. government initiative that consolidates information about individuals with known or suspected ties to terrorism. Its primary role is to enhance national security by providing a centralized database, known as the Terrorist Screening Database (TSDB), which helps inform law enforcement and security agencies. This database aids in identifying potential threats during various security checks, such as at airports or border crossings. The TSC works to identify individuals who may pose a risk while balancing civil liberties and privacy concerns.
