Electronic Sweeps:

Sophisticated electronic monitoring equipment has become cheaper, while information has become more expensive. This is a perfect situation for illegal electronic surveillance to surface.

If you or your company have information that gives you a competitive edge, chances are that others are interested in acquiring it, some without regard to the legality of their actions. Although somewhat risky, illegal electronic surveillance is a cost-effective means of acquiring information.

The economy, technology advances, and fierce competition are all contributing factors to the increase in Corporate Espionage. As a result, ESI International has put together a program to detect illegal electronic surveillance, and to help clients avoid electronic surveillance problems in the future.

In conducting an electronic sweep, ESI International uses state of the art equipment, and a thorough physical search of the targeted premises to detect the presence of any foreign devices or equipment. Following an electronic sweep, ESI International provides the client with a detailed report outlining the specific technical measures used during the sweep, along with the specific findings of the investigators. With the results of each search, ESI International provides recommendations for follow-up or corrective action to be taken by the client to further secure its facility against electronic intrusion.

If the sweep indicates an electronic penetration, ESI International can conduct an investigation to determine the source of the monitoring, and to preserve and present evidence for criminal prosecution and/or civil litigation against those responsible.

Caution:

If you are thinking of using ESI International to do an electronic sweep, take the precaution of not discussing the matter with others on telephones or in physical spaces that might be the target of illegal electronic surveillance attempts. Also, do not phone, fax or e-mail ESI International from the facility where the sweep will be conducted.
