Bug Sweeps SYdney | Melbourne | Brisbane | Perth

Technical Surveillance Counter Measures (TSCM); also known as electronic bug detection, bug sweeping or electronic counter measures; is the technique of electronically and physically inspecting offices, buildings, homes, vehicles, telephone systems, network systems and cabling for the existence of eavesdropping devices and to identify weaknesses in security that could potentially be used to install illegal devices. 

Specialising in the field of TSCM involves more than just equipment. It requires skills and experience in the field and an understanding of how and why threats occur, principles of radio frequencies and electronics, dedication to continually learn new methods and techniques, how to use defence graded equipment to their full potential and to constantly invest and upgrade to new equipment where needed. Large organisations and government agencies use us to mitigate their risks and provide counter espionage solutions such as bug sweeps and risk assessments for these reason.

Using the most technologically advanced hardware and software available in the world, our methods are perfected through years of experience in counter espionage. Equipment used by our TSCM Sweep team is used by Intelligence agencies, Defence departments and government's worldwide, including Australia (DFAT, DoD, DSD).

• Government TSCM Sweeps
• Corporate Bug Sweeps
• Specialist Vehicle Bug Detection
• Residential and Private Bug Sweeps

Our team understands that sometimes an urgent situation occurs that requires the use of a sweep team. We can cater for extremely urgent bug sweeps if needed. If commissioned, we manage all arrangements, cover stories and measures for allowing the operation to begin with the least amount of interruption and input to the client.

Government TSCM Sweeps

Our main speciality is conducting bug sweeps for all types of government departments including council chambers, members of parliament, government owned companies and more. When conducting sweeps for any sector, especially governmental sweeps, discretion and confidentiality is taken seriously.

Please contact us for information about governmental level sweeps.

Corporate Bug Sweeps

Depending on the threat level and the environment, there are a number of different methods and equipment that are required to detect certain listening devices in corporate offices. As this is a highly technical field, all our operatives are experienced and have the knowledge on the types of devices and how they are installed.

We begin by conducting a site survey to identify and locate illicit devices. We also conduct an external radio frequency spectrum analysis so that we perform a comparative analysis in each area we carry out the sweep. Our equipment can help locate all types of devices, such as digital burst and packet devices, Bluetooth and WiFi eavesdropping devices which are one of the most difficult devices to detect. We analyse, detect and locate all types of transmitting devices including electro-magnetic radiating devices, video, or data signals, including free to air transmissions and devices that utilise AC/DC power as a transmission source.

We are also able to offer protection for high net worth individuals and a monitoring service specifically for the detection of devices that occur in real time whilst, for example, an important meeting is taking place in two or more different locations at once.

Corporate and state sponsored espionage is on the rise. Protect your assets and business secrets sooner rather than later.

Specialist Vehicle Bug Detection

Electronic listening devices, hidden cameras, and GPS trackers are easily purchased and in many cases, easily installed. It is very easy to install these devices into motor vehicles, corporate hire cars, limousines, yachts or private jets such as GPS trackers or wired listening devices as they are available online on websites such as eBay. They come with instructions on how to install them and once installed they can cost you your business and your privacy.

The problem lies in their detection, which is very hard as the devices are very low power. Our equipment can detect these devices with ease. Our trained inspectors have experience in all types of sweeps, especially vehicles, boats and private jets. Our equipment can help locate all types of devices, such as GPS trackers, digital burst and packet devices, which are one of the most difficult devices to detect.

Residential and Private Bug Sweeps

We understand that the threat of illegal listening devices; wiretaps; hidden cameras and more; are not just reserved for corporate and government sectors. Homes and apartments are targeted just as much, especially if you are an executive of a company. We can provide bug sweeps for residences so that you can secure your assets and provide a safe environment for you and your family. Our research has shown that corporate types are also targeted in their homes as well as family law matters when spouses illegally bug their homes or their partners' homes. It could take one person sitting in a car pointing a beam onto a window of your home and listening to a conversation occurring inside.

Listening devices can be bought on the internet very easily and can be installed without knowledge of how the equipment works. They can be installed in so many things around your home such as alarm clocks, lamps, behind light switches, in the kitchen or behind a picture or painting. Our sweeps are conducted using the latest high tech detection equipment available on the market.
