Police investigations, intelligence gathering, and special operations

Explanation:

Terrorism can be characterized as a type of violence against innocent victims in order to promote some cause or perception of the world, whether personal, collective, that is, shared by a group, faction, etc. We know that throughout the twentieth century, and especially in the 21st century, terrorist actions have had and are having a major impact in various regions of the world. They are practiced by various agents and have generated a great concern and need to establish counter-terrorism strategies. These strategies include police investigations, intelligence gathering, and special operations aimed at identifying terrorist agents before they actually do anything.
