Secret Service Files

The President’s life isn’t all that’s at stake…

This unprecedented four-hour series presents an adrenaline-charged, immersive view of an agency that operates “below the radar” across the United States and overseas, featuring footage filmed in never-before-seen locations.

Welcome to the Secret Service…

In BATTLEFRONT COLOMBIA, undercover agents from the service’s International Unit follow the trail of a pair of suspected counterfeiters to rural Colombia, the epicenter of high-quality counterfeit.

UNITED NATIONS LOCKDOWN takes you inside “the bubble” when the US Secret Service locks down Manhattan to protect President Obama and 130 world leaders during the largest security event on earth: the United Nations General Assembly.

UNDERCOVER MIAMI follows agents at one of the Secret Service’s busiest field offices. Whether it’s tracking down counterfeit, flipping suspects, going undercover for a bust, or protecting the President and foreign heads of state, here in Miami it’s all in a day’s work

FRONTLINE NEW YORK CITY follows agents of the New York Field Office, where the job is as big as the city itself. See what it takes to stamp out counterfeit, flush out hackers, and protect the President and visiting dignitaries in the town that never slows down.

"The four-part series is thorough in covering every aspect of the Secret Service. Perhaps the most interesting part of the series is the coverage of actual sting operations. Seeing real people go into dangerous situations provides a thrill for the viewer that cannot be replicated on the big screen."
