The Core Worlds Security Act represented legislation that was put into effect during the initial period of the Clone Wars. Its primary function was to bolster the security measures in place across the planets located within the Core Worlds region. This was achieved by reallocating a range of military resources and security personnel to safeguard key planets like Coruscant, with the aim of preventing them from falling victim to the encroaching forces of the Separatist Droid Army. However, critics of the Act contended that its true purpose was to satisfy the demands of influential business figures and financial backers residing in the Core, while simultaneously leaving the more remote planets situated in the Mid and Outer Rim vulnerable and without adequate defenses against the Confederacy of Independent Systems.
