I don’t know of anything else she’s been in that she’s played it tough, but I doubt they would have cast her that way if they didn’t initially seen something of that in her. She certainly has the presence for the role if her outgoing personality at conventions is any indication.
It would’ve been so weird to see Marina Sirtis playing a badass security officer. I’m probably biased from only seeing her as Troi though.
