(They've always been autonomous, but they work closely alongside various branches of government. While they technically have to follow all the rules and procedures, it is common for those supposedly monitoring them to turn a blind eye to irregularities. So long as they achieve results and don't attract attention to themselves, they are left to their own devices.

Their ethics are largely corrupted, however. They are almost solely results-orientated and their leader doesn't hesitate to bend the rules and do what most would consider unethical. For example, due to few people signing up they have begun experimenting with the idea of repurposing detained criminals into unwilling soldiers, primarily through blackmail. The entire agency numbers around 200 people, but the majority of them are support staff and aren't involved with front-line work.)
