The Special Security Response Team[2][a] (特別機動警備隊, Tokubetsu kidō keibitai) is an emergency service unit placed under the Japanese Ministry of Justice's Correction Bureau. It is based at the Tokyo Detention House.[4]

According to Norio Saeki, Director of the Correction Bureau, SeRT is tasked to handle anti-riot and disaster operations at CB-staffed facilities without diverting manpower from various police or fire departments.[5]

Captain Hiromichi Ouchi is the SeRT's commanding officer when the unit was founded.[2] Captain Shinjiro Nagase was the SeRT Deputy Captain.[6]
