State Security Service

State Security Service < SSS> (国家保安局) is an organization in Ostania established to maintain domestic order. Their primary objective includes hunting down spies and surveilling the public. Some tactics they use include violence, wiretapping, intimidation, and torture. Due to that, they are widely feared by the public who call them the Secret Police (秘密警察).

Overview
They work as Secret Police much like agencies in totalitarian regimes. They view the Westalian Intelligence, journalists, and "Twilight" as their greatest enemies. They are effective at surveiling and capturing enemies, as seen with Franklin Perkin being captured in a matter of days after becoming a target.

Trivia

 * The emblem of the SSS takes elements from both the Nazi Eagle, with the bird, and the "Shield and Sword of the Party" Stasi insignia, with the guns and shield.
 * The badge symbol of SSS bears more resemblance to the Nazi Eagle than the "Shield and Sword of the Party" insignia of the Stasi.
 * In the anime, the State Security Service's emblem no longer shows the organization's name or its initials, and graphical depictions of its initials are removed.
