A strip search was a procedure undertaken by police or other authorities when an individual was suspected of being in possession of contraband or the proceeds of a crime. Those conducting the search required the subject to remove their clothing to determine if illicit materials were hidden there.

In 2373, when Arissa was found going through Tauvid Rem's Assay office locker, Odo asked her if she found anything.
