Secure Services Inc.

Secure Services Inc., commonly abbreviated to SSI, is a private security contractor in Night City in 2077.

Overview
SSI was established in 2062. Outwardly, it was known as a small company in 2077, on a tier well below big-name security corporations like Arasaka and Militech, but it was recommended to Jefferson Peralez by an associate. Peralez, who was gearing up for a run for mayor of Night City, accepted the recommendation to avoid having to tarnish his image as an anti-corp politician by relying on a larger corp for protection.

Unknown to the Peralezes, SSI was a front for an unknown party related to Mr. Blue Eyes that sought to mold the Peralezes into the ideal political couple and pave the way for Jefferson to become Night City's mayor. The operation consisted of three teams of personnel: ORANGE, BLUE, and BLACK. ORANGE included the Peralezes' Chief of Security Wallace, who oversaw the entire operation, and the security guards who the Peralezes saw on a daily basis. BLUE and BLACK were covert teams which carried out an elaborate gaslighting procedure on the Peralezes to manipulate their memories and personalities. The monitoring and gaslighting were done from a concealed room within the Peralez residence, and medicial and psychological observation data from the operation was sent to "management" via special line-of-sight transmitters and a mobile data center.

The merc V discovered SSI's hidden room and gaslighting tech after being hired by Elizabeth and Jefferson to figure out what happened to an intruder whom Jefferson shot after the SSI detail insisted the incident had never happened. V found the transmitters and pursued the SSI data center van, but the drivers arranged for Maelstrom to ambush V and cover their tracks. Depending on V's actions, the SSI agents were either killed or escaped aboard a cloaked AV. V could also either inform Jefferson that SSI was part of a conspiracy to manipulate him, or lie and say that his political opponent, Weldon Holt, had been using SSI to spy on him.
