Size and Range

As in other categories of electronic eavesdropping, recent technology has been utilized to build miniaturized RF transmitters the size of a pencil eraser. These devices will transmit radio signals anywhere from 100 feet to five miles and with the use of repeaters, reception range is even further. The availability of these small devices is rather astonishing with several manufacturers offering pre-concealed transmitters already packaged into such objects as smoke detectors, picture frames, clocks and ashtrays.

One of the smaller commercially manufactured transmitters is the size of an aspirin tablet, including microphone and battery, with a transmitting range of 1,000 feet. Several radio transmitters are available in prepackaged electrical lamps, power receptacles and clocks. These types have the advantage of a continuous power source, supplied directly to the transmitter, which permits a permanent installation. Eavesdropers could be listening many miles away,early detection of the device is essential.We at Listening -Device- Detection -Services have the most up to date equipment to ensure early detection of radio frequency attacks. ]]> http://www.listening-device-detection-services.co.uk/radio-frequency-attacks/feed/ 0 http://www.listening-device-detection-services.co.uk/electronic-sweeps/ http://www.listening-device-detection-services.co.uk/electronic-sweeps/#comments Mon, 20 Oct 2008 21:44:58 +0000 admin http://www.listening-device-detection-services.co.uk/?page_id=5 When you use your telephone to have a confidential communication you do not want a third party listening to your conversation. The same applies to the rooms of your house or office. Many businesses thwart illegal monitoring by having their offices and conference rooms swept (de-bugged) prior to a meeting. This eliminates their competitors from having access to inside information and acting upon that information. Listening Device Detection Services carry out ”Electronic Sweeps” to detect and neutralize electronic eavesdropping devices, or what are commonly called electronic bugs.

Electronic Eavesdropping Countermeasures (De-Bugging) can be defined as a combination of searches, both electronic and physical, which are intended to provide a business, person or organization some reasonable assurance of privacy against electronic surveillance devices (bugs). The search or “Sweep” is conducted by utilizing sophisticated equipment and techniques, in conjunction with a meticulous physical inspection. Eavesdropping Countermeasures are usually conducted for the following reasons:

‘Bug Sweeping’ services include;

• Radio frequency spectrum analysis to detect transmitting eavesdropping devices (bugs).
• Computer scans searching for spy ware and trojans such as keystroke loggers.
• Thorough physical inspections and security surveys.
• Detection of buried or inactive electronic circuitry.
• Telephony and cable inspections to locate the presence of listening devices or modifications that allow bugging.
• Use of specialist infrared detection equipment to locate eavesdropping devices using invisible light as a transmission medium.
• Detection and security testing of wireless networks (Wi-Fi).
