Bug Sweeping - Initial Steps


We suggest the following 6-point check list if you suspect you are a victim of Eavesdropping and/or Surveillance.

  1. Contact a specialist counter surveillance firm, and if you use a telephone make sure you make your call away from the target area.
  2. Do not discuss your fears with anyone within the workplace; often bugs are planted internally by members of staff.
  3. Do not try to find the bugs or wiretaps yourself.
  4. Consider carefully what action you would take in the event of a bugging device being found. A competent sweep team will not alert the eavesdropper that an inspection is being performed. Thus leaving you three options;
    a. Remove/Destroy the bugging device
    b. Take steps to catch the eavesdropper leading to the option to pursue criminal charges.
    c. Feed the device misinformation and monitor for results.
  5. Tell only a minimum number of people about your engagement of TSCM experts.
  6. Consider engaging a TSCM firm to conduct regular sweeps and to seal the vulnerable areas of your meeting rooms.

By observing these common sense precautions you will limit any damage, and take great steps to safeguard your precious business information from the bugging threat.
