Note:
Quality TSCM service is never provided by someone using a scanner, and or spy shop gadgets. A thorough” sweep” takes a considerable amount of time, not minutes, but hours, sometimes days. A competent sweep may be accomplished by conducting thorough electronic analysis, with the proper equipment, of many areas, as well as a thorough physical examination of the area in question. A single magic box, wand, or “gadget”, will not confirm that an area of concern has been compromised by the many devices and techniques that are used to gain information. You get what you pay for when shopping for someone to conduct a sweep.

A TSCM Professional is worth every dollar spent to ensure that your hard work, and proprietary information stays where it belongs.

Ask questions about procedures, precautions, due diligence and equipment when engaging a TSCM Professional.”
