Cyber Security Front
The Cyber Security Front; Ez: Eschgaumandoghaibe [EMD-G or Eschgau]; or CyFront; is the intelligence service of Easway, a self-declared maritime federation. Established 1 January 2021 and existing through various names, it engages in counterespionage in the aim of protecting the public from threats of terror against both the nation and Easwegian sovereignty. CyFront is headed by the Minister of Home Affairs under the title of Grand Paladin, currently Don Cho since 1 January 2024. Ultimate power over the organisation is held by its imperative commander the Grand Councillor.
The headquarters of CyFront are based in the Supreme Central Command of the Easwegian National Guard, located in Realmsedge Reserve of Essrina, Bear Island, Easwegian Svalbard. Outside Easwegian Svalbard, CyFront conducts limited activities in Vardø and Biarmia, both claimed in certain capacities by Easway.
Leadership
Then Grand Marshal Metallityöt organised the creation of the Eschgau on 1 January 2021 and led the organisation whilst the administrative functionalities of the previous CCEA was being transformed to this new service. In late March 2021, Metalli and then chief of state Emizerri organised a leadership board for the Eschgau, whereby a Grand Paladin would lead it as its general director and have officers known as Paladins as chief officers and aids beside the Grand Paladin. Hellmut became the first Grand Paladin.

History and Operations
The Common Security Force has been known by many names during its existence, including the Defence Corps, the Home Corps and the Unified Home Force.
Social Democratic Party
In October 2022, the Eschgau began investigating the Social Democratic Party of Easway, which had been accused of distributing anti-Easwegian content, including against its Pomors ethnic group, on 28 June 2022. This was in severe contrast to the political campaigns it had been producing the two months prior, which was general pro Easwegian and pro party leaflets and speeches. This caused much outrage in the public space, including the Eix - Easway broadcaster reporting on it. The anti-Easwegian posters, including one that said 'Pomors go home' was reported to have been confirmed by SPDE member Metallityöt's office. In response, SDPE party chief Leafer expelled Metalli from the party the same day.
On 28 September 2022, Syri of Easway reported to the Eschgau that an 'Anti-Easwegian Alliance Song' had been originating from the party.
On the 3 October 2022, the High Court of Justice granted the Eschgau, led by Gaia Grìbhinneach, a search and seizure warrant against the headquarters of the Social Democratic Party.
"Attention All Citizens The Eschgau is currently reaching out to anyone who may have any information that could aid in our investigation of the Social Democratic Party of Easway. If you are in possession of any information that could help our investigation, please contact us or send a direct message to the current Grand Paladin, Gaia Grìbhinneach.
Thank you." - Gaia Grìbhinneach
The Social Democratic Party of Easway unilaterally dissolved itself on 20 November 2022. The ongoing investigation was shelved, although the findings were classified.
Following the February Emergency, whereby former Grand Paladin and leader of the Mutualist Ouroboros Party leaked classified state documents and called for an overthrow of the Co-operative Government following him losing the December Grand Councillor elections against incumbent Emizerri and then fleeing the country once impeached from his seat on the High Court, the High Court released findings on 15 June 2023 found through a committee which worked with the Eschgau that shared findings of the SDPE investigation. In this, it was revealed that the Social Democratic Party had been infiltrated by the anti-Easwegian terrorist organisation Kingdom - 1925 and threatened its members. It was also revealed that Etch had assumed leadership of K-95 around September 2022. Whilst not being in contact with K-95 during the initial infiltration of SDPE, Etch used that initial infiltration to further anti-Easwegian rhetoric as well as delegitimising one of the opposition parties to his leading M.O.P. Once he had no more need for the SDPE, he announced his candidacy for Grand Councillor on 19 November 2022 and K-95 ended the threats, allowing the SDPE's leader Leafer to dissolve the party a day later.
Cyber Security Front
The Cyber Security Front (Cyber SF) was established as a division of the CSF on 20 April 2022 to defend Easway in the cyber space following increasing global conflict, as well as being responsible for cyber intelligence research. Then Grand Paladin Etch, chief of state Emizerri, then Marquis of Boriopa City Csyeigo and Alderman of the Pomors Frontier Demitrou Chostacovitch organised its establishment. Since 2024 it has been transformed into the leading body of the organisation.
Demitrou Chostacovitch served as its Directing-Chief from 20 April 2022 until the Cyber Security Front replaced the Elite Corps as the leading body of the organisation on 27 May 2024 through the Structural Reorganisation Act, with the Grand Paladin as its head.
