The Drejtoria e Sigurimit të Shtetit (Directorate of State Security) commonly called the Sigurimi was the state security intelligence and secret police service of the Socialist People’s Republic of Albania. De jure its goal was protecting Albania from dangers but de facto used to suppress the population and hold the system in place.In 2008 the Albanian parliament discussed opening the so-called sigurimi files but the Socialist Party of Albania contested it.
