The U.S. Secret Service, a vital agency within the Department of Homeland Security, plays a dual role in safeguarding national security. Originally established in 1865 to combat counterfeiting, the agency has evolved to include the protection of national and visiting foreign leaders, including the President and Vice President of the United States. At the same time, the Secret Service remains committed to investigating and preventing financial crimes, such as counterfeiting of U.S. currency, major fraud, and cyber-related financial threats. Its presence in White Plains, NY, supports both protective and investigative missions in the region.

With cutting-edge technologies and specialized personnel, the agency collaborates closely with federal, state, and local law enforcement to ensure the safety of the nation’s leaders and maintain the integrity of its financial systems. The U.S. Secret Service also actively engages in community outreach and educational initiatives, especially in cybercrime prevention. Known for its rigorous training, professionalism, and operational excellence, the Secret Service stands as one of the most respected law enforcement bodies in the country.
