At Private Investigations Thailand, we are rightly proud of our cutting edge surveillance technologies and techniques. And we have been using the most cutting edge technologies on behalf of our clients since we opened our doors. Our surveillance methods are powerful, discreet, and thus very difficult to detect. The only problem? Adversaries are now starting to use these same technologies against our clients and their businesses, even against their homes.
This demands, and raises the stakes of, an ever-more effective, Counter Surveillance program. We have had to move way beyond mere “bug sweeps”. We now have staff dedicated exclusively to ensuring our ability to carry out its mission in real-time,And that’s 24/7, 365. And we can even run the operation from a remote location. We’re talking full spectrum analysis. One that detects the briefest signal indicating radio frequency (RF) eavesdropping on our clients, or indeed, on our own offices. This is the complex threat environment we occupy today. But we know the terrain like our own backyard. Put us to work for you today.
Of course our CS programs must still identify traditional, low-tech bugs. These are often concealed in light fixtures, outlets, under furniture, or even inside ductwork, or under roofing. Bugs of this variety are still very much in use. Left undetected they can spell serious trouble for the eavesdropping victim. Our specialists can make quick work of these conventional devices.
But sweeping today must be able to detect more obscure surveillance devices. These are increasingly miniaturized – small enough to be inserted into USB cables, for example. But they are even more capable today of recording your private and secret communications. So depending on the scale of the surveillance threat you face, you have options. We may recommend an in-place monitoring system. This will give you the peace of mind that comes with a 24/7, 365 days a year detection system. Such a system monitors the entire RF spectrum. You might confront a surveillance device that, say, only transmits a signal once a week, for a fraction of a second at 3:00am. No problem. Our platform will detect it, locate it and promptly disable it.
So we have made considerable investment in cutting edge RF detection equipment. This indeed enables us to defend ourselves and our clients against today’s most sophisticated surveillance attacks. But this does not mean that sweeping for conventional recording devices, rather than transmitting devices, is a lost art. In fact, the recording devices that do not have a presence on the RF spectrum can be particularly troublesome. That is why there will never be a complete substitute for human counter surveillance. In fact, human CS remains the most common form of counter surveillance.
Phone tapping is clearly “old school” surveillance. But with the advent of cell phones the rewards of phone tapping have grown exponentially. Now a tapped landline just hears verbal conversation and nothing more. But tapped cell phones convey data from email, instant messages, voice messages, and other data sources common on today’s smartphone. So you might need to upgrade your mobile phone system to our end to end encryption system. Or, you may simply need to follow a new, usually quite strict protocol for use of existing phones. Either way, you can start to recover control over your private sphere.
We have discussed Risk Assessment and managing vulnerabilities at length elsewhere. But a word is in order about one of the most effective and illuminating techniques. This technique assesses and thus empowers you to manage cyber system vulnerabilities with the employment of ethical hacking. An ethical hacker is an individual who sells his particular skill set to an organization for good ends. They seek to penetrate networks and/or computer systems using the same methods and techniques as a malicious hacker. The point of employing an ethical hacker is to discover your systems’ vulnerabilities before an unethical hacker does.
We are ever deepening our expertise in Digital forensics. Digital forensics is essentially the effort to recover or investigate the content of any digital storage device. These investigations occur with growing frequency at all levels. National governments engage in this activity for the investigation and prosecution of the highest profile espionage cases. Lower courts utilize the services of Digital forensics experts in both civil and criminal cases. And at the domestic level, spouses in the midst of bitter, or high stakes divorce proceeds increasingly employ these services.
Our surveillance methods utilize cutting-edge technologies that are powerful, discreet, and challenging to detect, ensuring effective monitoring for our clients.
The Counter Surveillance program goes beyond traditional “bug sweeps,” incorporating full-spectrum analysis. Dedicated staff work 24/7, 365 days a year, detecting signals indicating radio frequency eavesdropping, even in real-time and remotely.
Specialists identify traditional bugs concealed in various locations and increasingly miniaturized surveillance devices, such as those hidden in USB cables. Depending on the surveillance threat, options include recommending an in-place monitoring system for comprehensive detection.
We invest in cutting-edge RF detection equipment to defend against sophisticated surveillance attacks. While focusing on RF detection, we also recognize the importance of human counter surveillance, especially in detecting conventional recording devices without an RF presence.
Ethical hacking assesses and empowers organizations to manage cyber system vulnerabilities. Ethical hackers use the same methods as malicious hackers to discover vulnerabilities before unethical hackers can exploit them, providing a proactive approach to cybersecurity.
