TSCM & Bug Sweeping

Cyber bugs are a growing threat, not a Cold War relic.

Technical Surveillance Countermeasures used to mean sweeping for a hidden microphone. Today the same room can hide a hardware keylogger, a rogue Wi-Fi implant, or a tampered cable, alongside the traditional listening device or camera. We combine classic TSCM technique with cyber-era threat detection to give you a genuine assurance sweep, not just a metal detector pass.

What a sweep detects

Every category of covert device, not just the obvious ones

A proper TSCM sweep covers transmitting and non-transmitting devices, hardware tampering, and the network hygiene of the space itself.

Transmitting & non-transmitting bug detection
Hardware keylogger detection
LAN/WAN implant detection
Hardware Wi-Fi interception & intrusion detection
Hidden listening device detection
Hidden camera detection
Embedded hardware bug detection, including circuits and cables
GNSS tracker detection: GPS, GLONASS, QZSS, BEIDOU, GALILEO
Why cyber-era TSCM matters

Physical and network security are two different questions

A room can be physically clean of surveillance devices and still have a network wide open to anyone who connects to it. A sweep that only checks for bugs and skips the network is only answering half the question.

PHYSICAL ASSURANCE

Confirmation that the space itself is free of transmitting devices, hidden cameras, and hardware implants.

NETWORK ASSURANCE

The devices connected to the network in that space assessed for the same weak configuration we would look for in any penetration test.

"CyberSweep is committed to protecting UK industry against espionage." That means treating the physical and digital threat as one problem, not two separate services delivered by two separate teams.

How a sweep runs

On-site, methodical, and built for recurring assurance

01

Scope the environment

Confirm the space, sensitivity level, and whether this is a one-off or the start of a routine programme.

02

On-site sweep

A professional, on-site technical sweep covering every device category, physical and network.

03

Report findings

A clear account of what was found, physical and network, with remediation guidance for anything identified.

04

Establish an ongoing programme

Routine sweeps carry a discount, because heightened assurance over time is worth more than a single point-in-time check.

Common questions

What people ask before a TSCM sweep

What is TSCM?

TSCM stands for Technical Surveillance Countermeasures: the practice of detecting covert surveillance devices such as hidden microphones, cameras, GPS trackers and hardware implants planted in a physical space or on a network.

What kinds of devices does a sweep detect?

Transmitting and non-transmitting bugs, hardware keyloggers, LAN and WAN implants, hidden listening devices and cameras, embedded hardware bugs including tampered circuits and cables, and GNSS trackers across GPS, GLONASS, QZSS, BEIDOU and GALILEO constellations.

Is this only about physical devices?

No. A TSCM sweep also covers the network hygiene of the space being tested, since a compromised Wi-Fi network or an unsecured device on the same network can expose you just as much as a physical bug.

Should we sweep once or on a recurring basis?

A clean result is a snapshot of the day it was taken. For genuinely sensitive environments, a recurring sweep programme is the only way to maintain assurance over time, and routine engagements are offered at a discounted rate.
