Take a moment right now, and ask yourself these series of questions:
​
1. Do you know the first names of your outside cleaning staff? How about even the name of the company?
​
2. Do you have a key card access system in your company? If you do, who monitors the program?
​
3. Do you screen visitors and contractors?
​
4. Do you have your meetings in a unsecured conference room?
​
5. Do you have a security service or CCTV cameras?
​
If you answer no, to any of these questions, you company is susceptible to eavesdropping devices.
Many of our clients schedule electronic sweep services on a periodic basis to ensure a higher level of protection. Client relationships are maintained on a confidential basis and sensitive information is handled discreetly. Electronic Eavesdropping Countermeasures (De-Bugging) can be defined as a combination of searches, both electronic and physical, which are intended to provide a business, person or organization some reasonable assurance of privacy against electronic surveillance devices (Bugs). The search or "Sweep" is conducted by utilizing sophisticated equipment and techniques, in conjunction with a meticulous physical inspection.
Eavesdropping Countermeasures are usually conducted for the following reasons:
​
-
Expectation that confidential business or personal conversations are being intercepted,
or a threat thereof.
-
Indication of a listening device.
-
Noise on the telephone lines.
-
Unsolicited telephone repair visits.
-
Frequent leak of information.
-
Telltale signs left by intruders.
-
Domestic or business problems.
