A special division of Starfleet Security provides constant security for the President of the United Federation of Planets. Members of the presidential protection division are present with the President at all times, and constantly guard the Château Thelian and the Presidential Office. Typically, Security officers wear standard Starfleet duty uniforms; on special occasions, officers may wear formal wear from their home planets or a Starfleet dress uniform.
