Counter-terrorism teams operate in a threat environment that changes constantly. Adversaries adapt, technologies evolve, and tactics can move rapidly between regions.

EW Solutions (EWS) supports counter-terrorism departments, government agencies, law enforcement, defence organisations and national security teams with specialist intelligence, Electronic Warfare (EW), Cyber and Electromagnetic Activities (CEMA), training, consultancy and engineering support. As a UK-based EW and CEMA specialist operating globally, EWS combines operational experience, technical expertise and proprietary threat intelligence to help organisations understand evolving risks, strengthen specialist capabilities and prepare for emerging threats.
Counter terrorism rarely sits within a single function.
Analysts need reliable threat intelligence. Operational personnel need relevant training. Capability teams need to understand whether existing systems remain effective, while decision-makers need independent advice on new technologies and emerging requirements.
EWS brings these areas together through an intelligence-led approach covering:
This ensures intelligence can directly inform training, operational planning, procurement and capability development.
Knowing that an incident has occurred is only the starting point.
Counter-terrorism teams need to understand what happened, how it happened, what technology or methodology was used and whether similar activity has been seen elsewhere.
At EW Solutions, we use Open Source Intelligence (OSINT), structured datasets and specialist analysis to help organisations build that deeper picture.
Support can include:
OSINT is an increasingly important part of modern counter terrorism intelligence.
News reporting, social media, video, imagery, technical documentation and other publicly available sources can all contribute to the intelligence picture. The challenge is determining what is relevant, credible and significant.
EWS analysts combine OSINT with technical and operational expertise to help teams identify patterns, investigate incidents and understand how adversary capabilities are developing.
For organisations looking to strengthen internal capability, EWS also provides specialist OSINT and intelligence analysis training.
Improvised threats continue to evolve as adversaries adapt available technology, components and delivery methods.
Our open-source threat data base (OSTD) provides structured, unclassified threat intelligence on IED and RCIED incidents worldwide.
Counter-terrorism teams can use OSTD to explore:
Because the intelligence is structured and searchable, analysts can move beyond individual incidents and identify wider trends, recurring methodologies and changes in adversary behaviour.
This provides a stronger evidence base for threat assessment, operational planning and countermeasure development.
Commercial availability and rapid technological development have made unmanned systems increasingly relevant to counter terrorism and national security.
Potential threats can range from hostile reconnaissance and payload delivery to disruption and attacks against sensitive sites.
OverSite is EWS's specialist UxV threat intelligence platform, providing structured OSINT and technical analysis across:
The platform helps analysts, planners, engineers and capability teams understand technical characteristics, operational use, deployment patterns, emerging technologies and adversary tactics.
For counter-UAS and counter-UxV teams, this provides an intelligence-led foundation for threat assessment, electronic warfare planning and capability development.
Technology only delivers capability when the people operating and supporting it have the right knowledge and skills.
EWS provides specialist EW & CEMA training courses for defence, national security, law enforcement and counter-terrorism organisations.
Training is delivered by experienced specialists and can be adapted around operational requirements, existing knowledge and specific threats.
Courses and training areas include:
Training can be delivered at customer locations, specialist training facilities or in relevant operational environments.


Effective capability decisions begin with a clear understanding of the threat and operational requirement.
EWS provides specialist consultancy services for counter-terrorism organisations.
Our consultancy is intelligence-led and vendor-agnostic, meaning the operational problem comes first rather than a particular technology or manufacturer.
Support can include:
This independent approach helps organisations reduce procurement risk and invest in counter terrorism solutions that address genuine operational needs.
Specialist systems need to perform beyond controlled testing environments. Operational support for defence and national security organisations across system integration, electronic countermeasures, field support and operational capability.
Engineering support includes:
By connecting engineering with threat intelligence and consultancy, EWS helps organisations ensure technical decisions remain aligned with the evolving threat environment.
Effective counter terrorism is an ongoing cycle of understanding, preparation and adaptation.
EWS can support organisations across that cycle:
Identify: Monitor emerging threats through OSINT, OSTD, OverSite and tailored intelligence services.
Understand: Assess adversary technologies, tactics and patterns of activity.
Prepare: Develop personnel through specialist intelligence, EW, CEMA, counter-IED and counter-UAS training.
Strengthen: Use independent consultancy and engineering expertise to develop, procure, integrate and support operational capability.
Adapt: Continue monitoring the threat environment and use new intelligence to inform future planning and development.
EWS is a leading UK and global specialist in Electronic Warfare, CEMA, intelligence and security, supporting organisations facing complex and rapidly evolving threats.
Our specialists bring real-world operational backgrounds to intelligence, consultancy, training and engineering support.
OSTD and OverSite provide EWS with specialist intelligence resources covering improvised and unmanned threats.
EWS monitors developments internationally, helping organisations understand threats within a broader global context.
Our vendor-agnostic approach ensures recommendations remain focused on operational requirements rather than specific technologies.
Counter-terrorism organisations need to recognise change early, understand its significance and adapt their people, technology and operating methods accordingly.
EW Solutions brings together specialist EW and CEMA expertise, threat intelligence, OSINT, operational experience and technical capability to support that process.
From counter terrorism intelligence and specialist EW training to counter-UAS capability, counter-IED support, consultancy and engineering, EWS can develop support around your organisation's specific requirements.
If you need to understand an emerging terror threat, strengthen an existing capability or explore how intelligence-led EW and CEMA expertise could support your organisation, speak to EW Solutions today about your counter terrorism requirements.
