See Section 31 for a similar organisation in the Star Trek context.

In the Star Trek fictional universe, Section 31 is an autonomous intelligence and defense organization.

In the Star Trek storylines, Section 31 exists outside Starfleet Intelligence's influence and deals with threats to Earth's and, later, the Federation's security.

Unlike other secret police organizations in the Star Trek universe, such as the Romulan Tal Shiar and the Cardassian Obsidian Order, Section 31 is not an actual branch of government.

Most references to the organization appear in episodes of Deep Space Nine, although Section 31 also appears in Star Trek: Enterprise.

Several works of Star Trek spin-off fiction expand on Section 31's operations ; Pocket Books published a four-part series profiling connections between Section 31's operations and the missions of James T. Kirk, Jean-Luc Picard, and the crews of Deep Space Nine and the USS Voyager.

These novels explicitly link Section 31 to Fleet Admiral Cartwright's actions in Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country and Vice Admiral Matthew Dougherty's actions in Star Trek: Insurrection.

Section 31 is also heavily featured in the Star Trek: Enterprise novel The Good That Men Do, in which Trip Tucker joins the organization after his supposed " death ".
