Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a TSCM sweep take?
Sweep duration depends on the size and complexity of the location. A typical office suite may take 2-4 hours, while larger facilities or multiple locations may require a full day or more. We provide time estimates during the consultation phase.
How much does a bug sweep cost?
Pricing varies based on the scope of the sweep, location size, and specific requirements. Contact us for a confidential consultation and customized quote.
Will a sweep disrupt our business operations?
We work to minimize disruption and can schedule sweeps during off-hours if needed. Most sweeps can be conducted with normal operations continuing in other areas.
How often should we have TSCM sweeps performed?
For high-risk environments, quarterly or semi-annual sweeps are recommended. Many organizations schedule sweeps before major events, negotiations, or as part of regular security audits.
What if you find a bug?
We document the device's location, type, and characteristics. We can safely remove it and preserve evidence if you're considering legal action. We also help determine how it may have been planted and recommend security improvements.
Is this legal?

Do you sign NDAs?
Absolutely. We routinely sign non-disclosure agreements and maintain strict confidentiality about all client engagements.
Can you detect every type of bug?
