History
Mars Security (MarSec) was initially founded in the year 2066 by F. Denman Williams II where they were founded with taking over security contracts for both the Moon and Mars colony. Thus, they took over many of the duties of the X-COM in the division of being a leading provider of off-world security. This allowed X-COM to focus their efforts in fighting any alien menace to Earth. Upon taking over the role, MarSec became the premier manufacturing of military hardware which they achieved with the help of Deman Dynamics. In the initial years of its formation, the company was empowered with the power to enforce order on the rebellious Martian colony at the time. It maintained a omninous as well as highly secretive nature and was responsible for the development of high technology weaponry as well as vehicles. Furthermore, they recruited scientists from Earth and used equipment that was left behind by X-COM. With the establishment of remote Elerium-115 mining colonines, MarSec began securing contracts for military equipment despite the opposition they faced from Megapol.
In 2067, the Frontier War broke out where MarSec began supplying X-COM with both spacecraft as well as weaponry. The company began developing a reputation when it was responsible for a violent crackdown of riots on Mars which were further followed by the assassination of the NAA Primer-President Cameron on Mars Colony One. This was due to the unrest that came from the Elerium-117 miners over their working conditions on their colonies. From this came mass riots that followed accusations of arrest of the leaders of the unions that ultimately led to the assassination of Cameron. This led to a MarSec strike team being deployed where they conducted several raids in order to enforce peace on Mars with the crisis lasting a week and causing the deaths of ninety five individuals. After the end of the Frontier War, MarSec began expanding its activities beyond Mars and later established itself on Mega-Primus thus turning it into one of the largest military supplier of Earth's nations and the colonies.
