Office Sweep Scope
What a professional corporate inspection should include.
Engineering-led technical surveillance counter-measures for boardrooms, executive offices, meeting rooms and other business environments where confidentiality matters.
K9 Electronics can support deeper technical work through its in-house RF laboratory, electronics workshop and precision manufacturing capability.

A professional corporate sweep is not only for organisations that already believe a listening device is present. It can also be used as a proportionate security measure around high-value conversations, unusual access to premises or periods of increased commercial sensitivity.
Boardrooms, strategy rooms and executive areas where confidential commercial decisions are discussed.
Before or during acquisitions, negotiations, financing discussions and other commercially sensitive transactions.
Meeting rooms used for privileged discussions, disputes, investigations or confidential client matters.
Environments where product development, intellectual property or confidential engineering information is discussed.
After unexplained access, contractor work, staff changes, disputes or other events that alter the security picture.
Periodic or event-driven TSCM for organisations that want an additional layer of technical security around critical meetings.
A room can be free of surveillance devices and still allow sensitive information to escape. For boardrooms, executive offices and meeting rooms, we can carry out a practical screening assessment of obvious acoustic and RF privacy leakage before important conversations take place.
Controlled speech or test audio is used to assess whether conversation can be heard or understood at relevant positions outside the intended private area, helping identify obvious weak points such as doors, glazing, partitions and adjoining spaces.
Indicative measurements compare radio-frequency signal levels inside and outside the room to assess how effectively the space attenuates wireless/RF energy and to highlight obvious leakage paths.
We document the areas checked, observations, indicative measurements, identified weak points and practical recommendations, including when more specialised testing may be appropriate.
This service is intended as a practical meeting-room privacy assessment. It is not presented as certified acoustic testing, TEMPEST testing or formal EMC/shielding-effectiveness certification.
For sensitive board meetings, negotiations, legal discussions or commercially important conversations, the privacy leakage assessment can be combined with a pre-meeting TSCM sweep. One service looks for potential surveillance threats; the other considers whether the room itself has obvious acoustic or RF privacy weaknesses.
The scope is agreed before attendance so the inspection is proportionate to the premises, concern and business risk. We investigate evidence rather than assuming every unusual signal is surveillance.
We establish the areas of concern, access history, sensitive rooms and any specific events that may affect the survey.
The radio environment is assessed using professional test equipment, with suspicious or unexplained signals investigated further.
Appropriate physical examination is combined with electronic detection methods rather than relying on a single handheld detector.
We explain what was examined, any significant findings, limitations of the inspection and practical next steps.
Modern corporate environments contain Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, mobile devices, wireless presentation systems, access control, IoT equipment and other legitimate RF sources. Simply detecting radio energy is not enough.
For smaller offices, meeting rooms and defined corporate areas. Larger premises, multiple rooms, unusual environments or higher-risk assignments are quoted according to scope.
The appropriate scope depends on the premises and threat picture. A defined corporate inspection may include the meeting room itself and other relevant areas or systems that could affect confidentiality.
