It's under DHS now and has been under DHS for quite a while. Initially that's who is tasked with investigating counterfeiting US currency and is why they were a division of the Treasury Dept. Had a nice chat with one of their reps when I was still in management and someone shot a fake 100 through my safe and i filled out the paperwork on it at the bank.
