Tim Caruso


James T. Caruso is a counterintelligence and counterterrorism consultant with over two decades of executive and managerial experience. During his 24 years with the FBI, Mr. Caruso was privileged to serve in a myriad of significant assignments.

As a section chief at FBI Headquarters, Mr. Caruso managed the FBI program targeting the intelligence services of the former Soviet Union; authored a five-year national program strategy that greatly expanded the program vision; called for new partnerships with the public and private sectors; and became a model for other FBI programs. He was later appointed Special Agent in Charge of the Washington, D.C., Field Office, where he directed the counterintelligence, counterespionage, and counterterrorism programs.

Mr. Caruso next served as Deputy Assistant Director at FBI Headquarters, managing the international and domestic counterterrorism programs. At this time, he worked with the FBI Director and a leadership council to formulate and execute the bureau’s worldwide investigation of the 9-11 terrorist attacks on the United States. Mr. Caruso finished his FBI career as the bureau’s first Deputy Executive Assistant Director for Counterintelligence and Counterterrorism. As Deputy, he assisted the FBI Director in redefining the counterterrorism program for the post-9/11 environment, working to streamline and maximize the FBI’s capacity to prevent attacks on U.S. interests both at home and abroad.

After leaving the FBI, Mr. Caruso worked with the U.S. House of Representatives Appropriations Committee to assess information sharing between the U.S. Intelligence Community and border security agencies in the post-9/11 environment.

After joining CSM in the spring of 2004, Mr. Caruso led the team that helped implement the FBI’s National Program for Counterintelligence for the 21st Century and recommend model programs in FBI field offices across the country.
