Description
The Authority for Emergency Interdiction and Security (AEGIS) was originally set up as a response to shipping losses to pirates and other emergent threats, but during the Triglavian Invasions the security organization became a major element of planetary and space station defense efforts by EDENCOM. The AEGIS Security Police (ASP) operate across New Eden and are used to secure and police orbital facilities and planetary defense networks controlled by EDENCOM. AEGIS Security Police also have an important role in investigating crimes and arbitrating disputes between the disparate interstellar forces that make up the military units operating under the EDENCOM mission. Increasingly, as the core empires look to their own internal security concerns and military-industrial strategic agendas, the AEGIS Security Police have supported the work of AEGIS Commandos and EDENCOM Anti-Warclone Units, as well as securing vital Upwell Consortium facilities constructing fortification equipment.
