The Coordination Unit for Threat Assessment is a Belgian intelligence organisation based in the Federal Public Service Interior (formerly the Ministry of the Interior) (Dutch: FOD Binnenlandse Zaken, French: SPF Intérieur).
According to the website of the Belgian Standing Intelligence Agencies Review Committee:
- The Coordination Unit for Threat Assessment, or CUTA, has been operational since 1 December 2006 (rue de la Loi, 22 à 1000 Brussels). This unit, which replaces the Mixed Anti-Terrorism Group (AtG), draws up specific or strategic evaluations of terrorist and extremist threats in and to Belgium.

- State Security
- The General Intelligence and Security Service

- The FPS Mobility and Transport
