Five Nights at Freddy's: Security Breach is a 2021 survival horror game developed by Steel Wool Studios and published by ScottGames. It is the ninth main installment in the Five Nights at Freddy's series.

The game features significant differences from other installments in the franchise, with primary differences including free-roam gameplay.
The game was first announced in 2020 during the PlayStation 5 Showcase, and was released digitally on December 16, 2021, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, and PlayStation 5. Ports for Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S released at later dates. In July 2023, free downloadable content titled Ruin was released. Security Breach received mixed reviews from critics, with praise towards the atmosphere and visual design, but criticism towards the gameplay and technical performance.
