Locating and removing bugging devices and providing protection against further eavesdropping are the core competencies of our experienced counter-surveillance specialists in Munich. We assist both companies and private individuals at any time: +49 89 7007 4301.
Munich’s diverse economy, which includes trade, industry, high-tech sectors, and research institutes, naturally attracts economic crime. Competitors are keenly interested in anything that gives them an advantage, making corporate espionage a constant threat. Eavesdropping is a common method, as small transmitters can be discreetly hidden almost anywhere, for example in picture frames, joints, writing instruments, or light bulbs. Our counter-surveillance experts in Munich have extensive experience in bug detection and can often identify the perpetrator based on the technology used.
A thorough inspection of your company premises is essential. Methods include laser scans and stethoscope inspections. Based on the detected devices, our specialists can usually determine the source and identify the culprit, providing evidence suitable for legal proceedings. Our Munich counter-surveillance team is happy to handle your assignment. Please contact us via email at kontakt@abhoerschutz-lauschabwehr.de or by phone.
To minimise the risk of eavesdropping, our Munich experts recommend establishing a bug-proof room. The room should be windowless, free of electronics such as telephones or mobile storage devices, and equipped with metal mesh in the walls, ceiling, and floor. This prevents any wireless communication, ensuring that any devices placed later cannot transmit information and that directional microphones cannot intercept conversations. Our Munich specialists are happy to explain these protective measures in detail.
We also advise regular inspections of the room to detect any newly introduced recording devices, ensuring your company’s confidential information remains fully protected.
Our Munich counter-surveillance specialists also assist private individuals if eavesdropping is suspected. A sweep of the apartment or house is recommended, although creating a dedicated bug-proof room is usually impractical. We provide detailed advice on protective measures for private spaces and the likely costs involved. Please use our contact form or call us at +49 89 7007 4301 for inquiries.
Professional Technical Surveillance Counter-Measures (TSCM) is a highly complex technical activity that requires extensive expertise and considerable financial investment in purchasing and maintaining the necessary equipment. The acquisition costs for the technical equipment used by a fully equipped counter-surveillance team are in the six-figure range. Across the entire DACH region, only around a handful of professional TSCM teams remain that operate to a standard comparable with that of public authorities. As a result, booking lead times are generally several weeks, and the costs of engaging such services are higher than commonly assumed.
Examples of fees as cost guidance for our technical surveillance counter-measures examinations:
comprehensive TSCM examination of a motor vehicle, including software: from €3,800.00
comprehensive TSCM examination of residential and commercial premises: from €4,000.00
reduced TSCM (private-client standard) of a motor vehicle: €2,000.00
reduced TSCM (private-client standard) of residential/commercial premises: from €2,200.00
For domestic assignments, the advance payment is 70% of the total costs, and for assignments abroad, it is 100%.
