TSCM- Training courses & sweep services
​
​
PHYSICAL (MANUAL AND VISUAL) CHECKS
​
-
Intensive search of any accessible hiding variant, the time-consuming, manual search is carried out in the rooms determined by priority of the probability of insertion of eavesdropping
-
Check hidden cavities using controlled video endoscope, miniature endoscope, inspection mirrors and other optical aids
-
Investigation of furnishing and decoration items, gifts and presents, wall and floor sockets, electrical fasteners and multiple sockets by means of a non-linear junction detector
-
Detection of pin-hole and other mini camera systems with special optical and RF-technical devices
-
Investigation for active infrared systems
-
Passive infrared thermography of parts of the building structure, furnishings and electrical
-
equipment on near-surface heat sources (so-called "hot spots")
-
Use of a mobile high-resolution X-ray machine
​
​
DETECTION OF WIRELESS TRANSMISSION METHODS
​
-
Long-term recording of a broadband RF spectrum for the detection of special digital techniques (FH, DS spread spectrum systems, burst transmitters, ...)
-
Checking the radio frequency spectrum using spectrum analyzers and broadband receivers as well as software-controlled spectral analysis
-
High-frequency measurements in the room for locating active and passive transmitting and recording equipment and hidden electronic components
-
Investigation of the high-frequency spectrum by means of real-time differential spectrum analysis (origin determination of each carrier frequency by continuous field strength comparison between the spatiality to be examined and the building environment) with spectrum analyzer
-
Field strength measurements with broadband near field receiver using the physical principle of the "near field effect"
-
Special examination for tampered WLAN systems in the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz range, which are not detected with normal WLAN technology (country-specific WLAN systems)
-
Checking for illegal GSM technology and checking for possible use of an IMSI catcher or similar technology to monitor mobile communications at the time of the action
​
INSPECTIONS AND MEASUREMENTS ON LINE NETWORKS AND DISTRIBUTORS
​
-
Checking of telecommunications and network lines with regard to conspicuous VLF and RF signals by means of external voltage-resistant audio amplifiers and inductively coupled near-field receivers or spectrum analyzers
-
Investigation of all circuits on VLF and RF signals by means of external voltage-resistant audio amplifier and inductively coupled near-field receiver or spectrum analyzer
-
Testing of telecommunications junction boxes and adapters using a semiconductor detector (NLJD)
