The Stanford University Department of Public Safety is a multi-service agency providing law enforcement, security, safety, crime prevention and emergency services on the Stanford University campus 24 hours a day. The law enforcement division works closely with Federal, State and local agencies on problems of mutual concern. Criminal cases occurring at Stanford are submitted to the Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office for prosecution. The combination of visiting dignitaries, major athletic events and other special events provide law enforcement opportunities not commonly found in most municipal departments.

The information contained in the Stanford Safety & Security Report is provided to members of the campus community in compliance with the Jeanne Clery Disclosure of Campus Security Policy and Crime Statistics Act. The Department of Public Safety gathers statistical crime data from its own records and from information provided by the Office of the Vice Provost for Student Affairs and other designated Campus Security Authorities. University officials at each of the eleven branch campuses gather the required crime statistics annually from their local law enforcement agencies and report these statistics to the Department of Public Safety. Additionally, upon request, the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office, the San Mateo Sheriff’s Department, the Palo Alto Police Department and other law enforcement agencies provide statistics from the required geographical areas to the Department of Public Safety annually. As required by law, the Department of Public Safety reports this information to the Office of Postsecondary Education on an annual basis.
