Imperial Republic Security Bureau
A Division of COMPNOR
REVISION IN PROGRESS
The Imperial Republic Security Bureau (IRSB) was created to heighten the Throne’s knowledge of political and militaristic events within the Imperial Republic. The Bureau is staffed soley by those loyal to the New Order. Primarily, the IRSB is responsible for the internal security of the Imperial Repubic. Much of the IRSB’s functionality however, arises from experienced counter-intelligence agents who attempt to insure that their intelligence is as good, or better than that of the IRSB’s rival agency, Imperial Republic Intelligence. The IRSB serves more of a enforcement function than does the Ubiqtorate in Intelligence, having a more public presence. Its operatives, especially in Surveillance, will often identify themselves as members of IRSB, the intimidation value being worth the loss of secrecy.
IRSB Officers monitor and maintain the loyalty of Imperial Republic citizens, in addition to assuring that no hostile intelligence agencies infiltrate the Imperial Republic. The IRSB also performs duties similar to a police force. The difference to a police force is, however, that the IRSB focuses its primary attentions on political rather than civil matters. In short, the IRSB upholds Imperial Republic Law within the Imperial Republic; it is the Imperial Republic's Law Enforcement Agency.
The IRSB Central Office is a immense complex located in Imperial City, Coruscant, that handles all of the communications and coordination tasks for the entirety of the IRSB. The Commission of Operations transmits assignments through the Central Office directly to the Sector Offices. The IRSB’s branches include: Surveillance, Investigations, Internal Affairs, Interrogation, Re-Education, and Enforcement. All communication between sector offices and otherwise is held directly through the Central Office.
