Security droid

"Now we must leave, before more security droids arrive."

―Sheev Palpatine

A pair of KX-series security droids.

Security droids, also known as enforcer droids, were a type of droid used for supervision and enforcement, often relying on brute strength. During the Clone Wars, the term commonly referred to the OOM-series security droid used by the Trade Federation and Confederacy of Independent Systems. The KX-series was one such example of a security droid model used by the Galactic Empire. The New Republic used two models of security droids.
