Technical Surveillance - Covert Tracking Systems
HollowPoint utilizes a state of the art covert technical tracking system. It can be used either in conjunction with a surveillance team or simply on their own. These devices offer real time tracking via global positioning satellites (GPS) and can be relayed back to your laptop, meaning wherever you are in the world you can access the system and know exactly where your loved ones or assets are.
Counter Surveillance
Counter surveillance involves the use of a surveillance team to determine whether or not you are under surveillance yourself. Our specialist operators are experienced in this field with conducting extremely sensitive counter surveillance tasks at the highest levels.
If you suspect that you, your family members or employees are the subject of a surveillance operation for whatever reason, a HollowPoint counter team will easily be able to confirm or deny your suspicions and advise you on the relevant course of action.
Protective Surveillance
Protective Surveillance is often utilized in highly sensitive situations such as in the protection of spouses and children, where the obtrusive and overt attention of an individual bodyguard or close protection team would not be conducive to their lifestyles. In these instances, HollowPoint uses a dedicated protective surveillance team which provides an unobtrusive security screen around the principal, to all intents and purposes remaining virtually unseen while ensuring your complete peace of mind.
Technical Surveillance Counter Measures
Gaining intelligence is a vital requirement to most organizations and the use of covert electronic devices such as audio transmitters and recorders (bugs) is disturbingly widespread. The subsequent intelligence that can be achieved through the use of these systems has the potential to be highly damaging to your company or reputation.
10 Possible Examples for Reasons You May Need a Surveillance Team
Others Know Your Confidential Business - Probably the most obvious indicator of covert eavesdropping activities. The theft of confidential information is more common than may be imagined and is worth millions to the right people. If your competitors appear to know things that are obviously secret, then it would be reasonable to suspect some form of technical eavesdropping is in place.
Strange Sounds on Your Phoneline - Commonly caused by an amateur eavesdropper when they attach a wiretap or activate a similar listening device. Volume shifts, static, scratching, beeping or popping are all indicators that some form of amateur device is attached to your line.
Radios and Televisions Develop Interference - A lot of technical devices use frequencies within TV and radio bands. These signals, however, tend to fluctuate and will disturb your appliance in the vicinity of a bug. In this respect, a simple AM/FM radio can be used as a crude form of detection equipment by simply moving it around a room and noting when its output significantly changes (known as feedback detection).
Your Car Radio Develops a Problem - If a technical device has been installed in your vehicle it may well be using the radios antenna to send out its signal, thereby introducing interference into the system.
Recent Gifts - Have you recently received some form of electronic device as a gift? Alarm clocks, radios, lamps, calculators and other small presents that other companies send out can actually be devices that contain audio and imagery equipment.
You Have Been a Victim of Burglary But Nothing Was Taken - This speaks for itself... why would someone break in and not steal anything? Professional teams often illegally break into homes or offices to install technical devices, leaving little or no sign. Sometimes, however, the occupants of these premises will get a feeling that something isn't quite right and realize that someone has been in there.
Small Piles of Dust or Grit on the Floor - This could mean that a pinhole device has been installed into either the walls or the ceiling, inserted by means of a tiny drill that would leave such debris on the floor.
Unexpected Visits From Utilities Repair People - This is a common method in use today whereby someone will arrive at your home or business premises in order to conduct an inspection or fix some problem. In reality, however, they are installing some form of covert technical device.
Strange Vans Parked Consecutively in the Vicinity of Your Premises - Be cautious of any vehicle parked up that is large enough to conceal someone in the back. These vehicles are often used as listening posts and, due to the poor quality of most amateur devices, will have to be parked nearby in order to receive a signal.
The Locks on Your Doors Don't Feel Right or Start to Fail - This is a sign that your locks have been picked or manipulated in some way to allow someone access. The process of manipulating locks can sometimes damage the mechanism, resulting in the locks becoming sticky when you try to open them with a key.
