'''Star Fleet Security''' is a branch of [[Star Fleet]] responsible for maintaining security, with its headquarters at [[Star Fleet Security Command]]
In the early [[2150]]s, Star Fleet Security was a section of [[United Earth]]'s [[Star Fleet]] that had at least one branch based on [[Earth]] in the [[Sol sector]].
[[Harris (Section 31)|Harris]] served in Star Fleet Security until [[2149]], when his service abruptly ended. In [[2154]], [[Commander]] [[Collins (Commander)|Collins]] was a [[security officer]] who worked for Star Fleet Security. The department scanned for DNA and [[Ion|ionization]] traces to search for [[Doctor]] [https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Phlox Phlox], who had been kidnapped outside [[Madame Chang's Mandarin Cafe]] in San Francisco on [[Earth]]. Following the foundation of the [[United Federation of Planets]], Star Fleet Security was not only responsible for Star Fleet security, but also some [[Federation]] [[outpost]]s, [[starship]]s, and [[science station|facilities]]. In this function, they act in ways analogous to local and regional [[police]] agencies, but Star Fleet Security's mandate extends much farther than that. The agency is responsible for maintaining and enforcing Star Fleet Security regulations, procedures and policies on all Star Fleet and affiliated facilities, outposts, and vessels. In addition, this agency is responsible for [[security clearance]]s of all Star Fleet/UFP personnel.
The agency, in close cooperation with [[Star Fleet Intelligence]], is also responsible for counter-intelligence operations. The agency is also responsible for the security of the [[Federation President]], as well as members of the [[Federation Council]] and visiting alien dignitaries.
In [[2367]], [[Vice Admiral]] [[Thomas Henry]] was the [[Chief of Star Fleet Security]]. He evidently was a firm defender of personal liberty in addition to his primary duties when he punished Admiral [[Norah Satie]] for leading a baseless political witch-hunt on the ''Enterprise''. By [[2370]], [[Admiral]] [[Raner]] was serving as head of [[Star Fleet Security Command]].
In [[2369]], the Star Fleet Security officer [[George Primmin]] was sent to [[Deep Space 9]] to help protect a shipment of [[deuridium]].
Star Fleet Security often sent [[Odo]] [[criminal activity report]]s.
A Star Fleet Security investigation determined that [[Ambassador]] [[Krajensky]] had been kidnapped or killed by the [[Dominion]] on his way to [[Risa]].
In a situation of emergency, officers may be assigned to planetary security. In [[2372]] [[Benjamin Sisko]] was assigned Chief of Star Fleet Security on [[Earth]] by Admiral [[Leyton]].
After Sisko was attacked by a [[Unnamed Bajorans#Bajoran assassin|member]] of the [[Cult of the Pah-wraiths]] in early [[2375]], he gave a statement to Star Fleet Security.
Aboard Star Fleet-run facilities and vessels, security was one of the most important [[division]]s in the [[23rd century|23rd]] and [[24th century|24th centuries]], combining the [[armory]] and [[MACO]] functions of the [[22nd century]]. Security personnel served functions both defensive and offensive, ranging from security patrols on board a [[starship]], to guarding [[crime|prisoners]], to firing the ship's [[weapons]], to providing protection during [[away team|landing party/away team]] missions, and more. In the 24th century the [[officer]] in charge of security on a [[starship]] was given the [[:Category:Titles|title]] of [[Security Chief]].
==Security officers==
*Aboard the {{USS|Voyager}}, [[Tuvok]] was the security officer.
*[[Malcolm Reed]] was posted as [[armory officer]] - prior to the Federation Star Fleet Security being established - aboard the [[Enterprise (NX-01)|''Enterprise'']].
