Counter Surveillance
Counter Surveillance is watching those who are watching you. The goal is to establish if you are being followed or monitored in anyway.
Common Places that are vulnerable to electronic surveillance include:
Corporate Headquarters
Residential Premises
Vehicles
Mobile/Landline Phones
This can be someone following you physically or electronically. Technical Surveillance Counter Measures (TSCM) or more commonly referred to as Bug Sweeping refers to a set of practices and techniques used to detect and neutralise unauthorised surveillance devices or activities. TSCM is primarily employed to protect sensitive information and ensure the confidentiality and privacy of individuals or organisation and to provide peace of mind from competitive or vicious threats.
TSCM specialists conduct thorough inspections of premises, including physical inspections, electronic sweeps, and analysis of the detected signals to identify potential security vulnerabilities and eliminate any unauthorised surveillance threats. Our sweeps are carried out by government licensed operatives who are highly trained in the use of multiple specialised equipment including:
Non-Linear Junction Detectors (NLJD): These devices help identify hidden electronic components by emitting radio frequencies and detecting the reflected signals. They are useful in locating concealed listening devices, such as bugs or wiretaps.
Radio Frequency (RF) Spectrum Analysers: RF spectrum analysers scan the electromagnetic spectrum to detect the presence of unauthorized or suspicious radio signals. They help identify covert transmitters, wireless microphones, or other wireless surveillance devices.
Thermal Imaging Cameras: Thermal cameras are used to detect the heat signatures emitted by electronic devices. This enables the identification of hidden equipment, such as surveillance cameras or recording devices, which may generate heat during operation.
Time-Domain Reflectometers (TDR): TDR devices are used to identify and locate wiretaps or unauthorized taps on communication lines. By analyzing the reflections of electrical pulses sent down the wires, TDRs can identify irregularities or impedance changes caused by covert devices.
Infrared (IR) Scanners: Infrared scanners are employed to detect the presence of infrared signals or light emissions. They help identify hidden cameras or other surveillance devices that operate using infrared technology.
Thermal Insulation Detection Systems: These systems are used to detect anomalies in thermal insulation or building structures. They can identify hidden cavities or compartments where surveillance devices might be concealed.
Spectrum Analysers: these are used to monitor and analyse radio frequency signals across a wide range of frequencies. They assist in identifying unusual or suspicious signals that may indicate the presence of surveillance equipment.
Telephone Analyser: A telephone analyser is a device used to detect and analyse the presence of wiretaps or other modifications on telephone lines. It helps identify any unauthorized devices intercepting or recording telephone conversations.

Mobile phones are becoming increasingly vulnerable to being hacked via links sent in text messages or emails. This search will identify if the phone has been compromised and will clear the threat. This service includes advice on how to better protect your phone to prevent any further issues.
Landlines can be checked to confirm if any bugs are installed on the line. This includes wi-fi phones setup in an office environment.
