Counter surveillance for Bug and Concealed Camera Sweeps
Are you concerned that someone may have bugged your home or office? We perform bug sweeps using some of the best equipment to detect wired and wireless cameras as well as listening devices. We can check for cameras and listening devices in your home or office. Protect you privacy!
The Technical Division of Greves Detective’s asks:
Has your company recently experienced a layoff?
Are people finding out your secrets or personal business?
Are you scheduling a highly confidential meeting or conference?
Is confidential information about your business leaking out?
Does your phone often ring once and then stop?
Did you have a break-in at your home or business and nothing was taken?
Do you have an overly suspicious spouse or significant other?
Do others know about your conversations even when you talk from the privacy of your vehicle?
Do you think you might be under covert video surveillance?
If your answer is "yes" to any of these questions, you may be under electronic surveillance. Your home, office, vehicle or computer may be "bugged," or otherwise compromised. Don't order a "bug detector" or "phone tap detector" off the Internet, because most of that equipment is junk. If you need professional TSCM (Technical Surveillance Counter Measures) services, the Technical Division of Greves Detectives will bring their equipment and expertise in to help you! Greves Detectives’ clients include politicians, law enforcement, entertainers, attorneys, accountants, manufacturers, publishers, the fashion world, and private citizens.
Greves Detective’s Private Investigators carry out Counter Surveillance bug sweeps and Concealed Camera Sweeps in most areas and environments where we use some of the industries’ most advanced electronic counter surveillance and debugging equipment to locate all types of electronic listening devices / bugs, telephone taps, hidden video, radio and microwave devices.
In general, our Private Investigators will be conducting a two part search; looking for Hardwire, Radio Frequency, and laser / Infrared bugs. The two part search will consist firstly of a physical search, where we will inspect electronic equipment and suspect areas for known devices and then for the second part we will carry out an electronic RF spectrum and audio search using our counter surveillance equipment. Our Private Investigators will search all possible areas including telephones and phone lines both inside and outside the property.
In addition to the initial counter surveillance search, we recommend further regular debugging searches to maintain your security and peace of mind. This is due to the ease with which individuals can plant bugging devices at some time after our search is completed.
Our Private Investigators have the bug sweeping and detection equipment and experience to carry out complete counter surveillance sweeps in the following locations:
Home
Micro devices fitted in clothing
Office
Factory
Micro devices fitted in clothing
Vehicles (car and van)
In order to explain the risks that you may encounter from being bugged we have detailed the three main types below:
Hardwire, (Telephone & Telephone line search)
A Hardwire bug or transmitter is a listening device that is attached to your phone or phone line. It's generally powered by the line or the phone itself, these are often hard to detect as they generally transmit when a call is in operation. A hardwire transmitter can be placed on the phone, line, or central telephone system. The transmitter can even be placed on your line outside of the building, or down the street at the junction box.
Radio Frequency (RF), (Spectrum & audio search)
RF transmitters send wireless signals through the air. A FM / AM / Microwave counter surveillance scanner device can then intercept these signals.
With today's technology, local spy stores and the internet are selling RF transmitters for less than ten thousand rupees. This is making it increasingly easy for "interested parties" to place a device in a room and listen to meetings, important company decisions, or discussions about new products or services. A common place is in the personnel department where details of other employees can be learnt.
These bugs can be located within electrical outlets, under furniture, inside an ornament, clock, or even in a book. A physical search by a Private Investigator helps in locating RF transmitters however the main part of the search is by using a counter surveillance RF detector / locator.
Laser/Infrared bugs
These types of listening devices operate through a window or similar opening. An operative could easily setup the equipment via tripod connected to a transmitter and intercept your communication from miles away. A laser or infrared beam is shot into the room from any distance of up to many miles away. The audio in that room is picked up by the laser beam and transferred into data that is then sent over the light or infrared beam back to the sender. The sender normally has a recorder connected to the equipment and can record the conversation.
Physical Search
The inspection of electrical outlets, air vents, ceiling tiles, smoke detector covers, light switch covers etc for inspection.
