They did have security, it just wasn’t the full on secret service as we know and call it today. It also was definitely lacking in many ways because Lincoln’s guard for the night left the theater to get drunk. I remember there was no evidence he was working with Boothe, they guy was just incompetent

Yeah, "security" was probably too broad a term, but you know what I mean

There was also that time that Davy Crocket had to save an assassin from the President.

There were like five other people in the room with him when he got shot. Not sure if any were security for him, though it would not be surprising if there was other guards. Doesn't really matter if there were other guards in the room because the important part was keeping Boothe from getting into the room, and the guy who was supposed to do that just left, and no one knew so I guess when Boothe walked in any other guards in the room at first thought he was supposed to be there, until y'know, he shot Lincon
