  • Radio Frequency (RF) Spectrum Searches
  • Infrared Transmitter Searches
  • Power Line Analyses
  • Carrier Current Detection

    1. On- and Off-Hook Instrument Inspections
    2. Telephone Wiring Inspections
    3. Computerized Telephone Switch Evaluations
• Non-linear Junction Detector Search
• Physical Inspections of Work Areas, Office Equipment, and Furniture
• Reports of Findings/ Recommended Corrective Actions

Periodic professional "sweeps" of specific high discussion areas with controlled access - such as boardrooms, conference rooms or legal departments are designed to locate and identify possible clandestine listening devices. Our technical professionals are full-time staff members and have over 30 years' combined field experience. They have been formally trained as Technical Countermeasures Specialists from the finest training facilities offered by the U.S. government intelligence community. They possess the knowledge and experience to use state-of-the-art advanced countersurveillance detection equipment.

Before selecting a company for professional TSCM services, consider these key factors:

• Knowledge, qualifications and experience of TSCM specialists
• Detection capabilities and frequency range of radio frequency search equipment
• Various means to detect and locate both active or inactive hidden electronic surveillance devices
• Background in accessing telephone systems and instruments
• Skill in physical search techniques to complement and augment the technical search
• Full-time in-house staff members versus sub-contractors
• Written documentation describing services provided, security vulnerabilities, and recommendations regarding identified vulnerabilities

Failing to identify and/or take corrective actions to address the threat of counterintelligence can jeopardize the growth of the company, result in a loss of  revenue, and negatively affect a company's reputation.
