The Pre-Mor Authority Security Forces, alternatively known as Pre-Mor Enforcement, or simply as Corporate Authority and Pre-Mor security service, was the private security force of the Consolidated Holdings of Preox-Morlana Corporation conglomerate that operated across the Free Trade sector, responsible for protecting its corporate assets and employees. Pre-Mor Enforcement was part of the Corporate Tactical Forces aligned with the Galactic Empire.
The Pre-Mor Enforcement force were led by a Chief Inspector who was responsible for maintaining order in the Preox-Morlana sector and acted as a liaison with the Galactic Empire, having to routinely present reviews regarding the sector's crime rates to the Imperial Regional Command. While in command of the entirety of the Pre-Mor forces, the Chief Inspector was ultimately subordinate to Imperial personnel and could be relieved of his duties in a time of crisis. He was assisted in his duties by a number of Deputy Inspectors responsible for investigating crimes committed in the sector.

Enforcement and policing duties were undertaken by sentry guards (nicknamed "corpos") organized in units called Pre-Mor Security Inspection teams under a sergeant. These guards were required to abide by a code of conduct prohibiting the consumption of certain alcoholic beverages such as Revnog and the visit of locations such as brothels.
While action duty was restricted to sentry guard units, there was also a number of stationed in the Corporate Security Headquarters on Morlana One whose mission was to assist operative units by gathering and analyzing data pertaining to the suspects of crimes to facilitate their identification and arrest.

Pre-Mor enforcement officers were typically armed with sidearms such as the B1-NA blaster pistol version with retractable sights as part of their standard uniform. These blaster pistols were marked with the logo of the Preox-Morlana corporation and a visible serial number and could be traced back in case they were stolen. During special operations that required the use of heavier firepower, Inspection units could be assigned specialized long-range blaster rifles physically resembling a carbine variant of the SE-14C blaster pistol, which were to be carried by specially trained corpos of the team. All Pre-Mor personnel also carried shoulder-mounted comlinks and which could be used to detect the source of radio transmissions.
Pre-Mor corpos wore blue colored Mk 35 lightweight blast vests with orange stripes and the Preox-Morlana logo on the left side, matching caps, combat gloves, weatherproof expedition boots and gray-blue suits with black-padded knees and elbows as well as spaulders. Officers wore the same uniform as corpos with the addition of a fully orange-colored visor on their cap.
Pre-Mor Enforcement personnel were transported to and from their Morlana One headquarters aboard Pre-Mor Authority Patrol personnel carriers, pyramid-shaped, hyperdrive-capable starships which could dock up to six smaller craft. These were usually mobile Tac-Pods, six man armed personnel carriers and landing craft which were used for planetary landings and air support during special operations.
