The correct answer is: Data on outstanding warrants and missing persons

The National Crime Information Center (NCIC) is a key resource in law enforcement that maintains a comprehensive database of criminal justice information. Among its primary functions is the compilation of data related to outstanding warrants and missing persons. This information allows law enforcement agencies across the country to quickly access critical details about individuals who are wanted for various offenses, as well as information on missing persons that can assist in investigations and recovery efforts. NCIC’s database is designed to facilitate and enhance public safety by providing vital data that law enforcement can use to track and apprehend suspects, identify potential threats, and coordinate efforts in locating missing individuals. Each law enforcement agency can tap into this information, making it an essential tool for effective crime-fighting and investigative work.
