The Imperial Security Bureau, commonly abbreviated to ISB or The Bureau, is the domestic intelligence and security service of the Galactic Empire while also functioning as it's law enforcement arm. It is one of three bureaus under Imperial Intelligence.

Role

The Bureau is responsible for the security of all Imperial territories and personnel. They enforce the Imperial Criminal Code on Imperials and others alike. They station agents within every unit and department of the Empire. Their roles include, among other things, policing, counter-terrorism, investigation, apprehension, communication monitoring, surveillance, interrogation, Order-wide human resource management, re-education, adjudication and protocol enforcement. The Bureau maintains the ability to monitor all Imperial communication channels, providing additional security and an accessible means of contact for all Imperial citizens to voice their concerns about the security of their military unit, or civilian group for the benefit of the Empire.

Structure

ISB Central Office, Byden ISB Complex

The Deputy Director of Imperial Intelligence is the head of the Bureau. He reports directly to the Director of Imperial Intelligence and the Imperial Throne.

Surveillance

The Department of Surveillance works alongside Imperial Intelligence as well, gathering and maintaining an immaculate record of all Imperials. It is their duty to identify potential threats before they have the opportunity to do damage to the Empire. This is done through multiple strategies, including but not limited to covert agents throughout the Empire, maintenance of extensive databases, and analyzing internal intelligence information. The Chief of Surveillance serves as the de facto ISB 2IC, holding the highest public rank outside of the Directorate of Imperial Intelligence.

Adjudication

The Department of Adjudication is tasked with handling the overwhelming majority of the Empire's matters of justice, law and prosecution in accordance with the Imperial Criminal Code and Imperial Code of Military Justice as appropriate.

Corrections

The Department of Corrections is the authority on all matters of judicial enforcement and handles the management, chain of custody, and all formal matters of physical and procedural punishment within the Empire. The Department is also responsible for the security of the Empire's reserve forces. The Chief of Corrections serves as the Empires designated executioner.

Re-Education

The Department of Re-Education maintains the secretive Bureau training academies throughout the Empire where officers are sent to renew their faith in the Imperial way.

Regional Bureau's

ISB Sector Liaisons have full jurisdiction and control over all Bureau operations within their sectors; they work alongside and with the Intelligence Officers assigned to their sectors. Sector Liaisons report to the Deputy Director. The Intelligence Officers are assigned to a specific Oversector and provide accurate intelligence for military officers that are a part of their sector command, but they are required to report to Imperial Intelligence.

Inter-departmental operations

In a textbook case, Surveillance or the regional liaison would detect a security threat, and relay the information to Enforcement who would direct the operation to arrest the perpetrator. Adjudication would build the evidence for a case, and try the individual on the charges. Re-education would put them into the appropriate education facility where they would serve out their term. The Directorate would monitor this process.

A New Era

Coinciding with the transfer of Director von Bianchi to focus on his duties as Dark Lord of the Sith and act as Grand Moff of the Corporate Oversector and Sith Worlds, Executor Seele announced his retirement after a long and illustrious career. In tribute, as his first order of business, newly-appointed Director Daniel Ascarion announced the formation of the newest expansion of ISB with the opening of the Seele Centre for Security and Legal Training, Improvement, and Professionalism.

This sprawling campus offers new and veteran agents alike the opportunity to become versed in professionalism, with a goal that one day all ISB agents will be at a level that would not only meet the former Executors standards but even exceed them. This lofty goal is the driving force behind the Centre's large budget and a long list of staff.
