Central Tactical Unit

Based at the Imperial Security Bureau's Central Office on Imperial Center, the Central Tactical Unit is a self-contained task force created by the Investigations branch of the Imperial Security Bureau to operate outside of the ordinary chain of command. It combines personnel not just from Investigations but from Surveillance and Enforcement as well, allowing it to investigate crimes and provide a counter-terrorism and counter-intelligence role without the administrative complications of needing cooperations between the various ISB branches.

Because of the location of it's headquarters, the unit is sometimes referred to - unofficially - as the Coruscant Tactical Unit. This is considered inacurate however, as it's area of operations technically encompasses anything considered to be of "special interest" to the Director of Investigations; in reality, this usually extends to the major imperial worlds located in the Core.
