When confidential information circulates illogically, when a meeting becomes “porous,” or when the privacy of a home is no longer certain, doubt quickly takes up too much space.
TSCM (counter-surveillance) detection allows for the structured verification of the absence of audio/video recording or geolocation devices within a defined perimeter: offices, residence, vehicle.
Bug Sweeping & Spy Camera Detection (TSCM): Secure your communications, protect your privacy
The Hyperion Group operates with: discretion, method, and clear decisions.
Are you in a hurry?
Access our pages dedicated to bug and camera detection directly, whether for your business, your local community, your vehicle, or your home.
For whom?
Businesses, firms, departments, communities
Are you looking to protect:
- December sensitive meetings (negotiation, buyout, litigation, HR),
- December Strategic information (contracts, tenders, data, plans),
- critical spaces (executive office, meeting room, confidential areas),
- and sometimes some Company cars (suspicion of tracking, third-party access).
The goal is to have a controlled approach: define the scope, verify thoroughly, then harden what needs to be.
We also work with individuals.
You want to protect:
- your Privacy at home,
- a tense situation (separation, conflict, harassment, neighborhood dispute),
- a specific location (on demand),
- or a vehicle If you suspect a tracker.
In these situations, “searching randomly” can waste time and create errors. A methodical approach brings clarity.
Controlled locations: home, office, vehicle
Home (apartment / house)
Living areas, bedroom, office, sensitive zones, and technical zones accessible according to the agreed perimeter.
Objective: Regain control, find a peaceful environment, and establish simple, lasting rules.
➡️ See our dedicated page for Apartment and house detection
Office / company
Management offices, meeting rooms, private spaces, reception or transition areas, accessible technical areas.
Objective: reduce the risk of leakage and protect decision-making.
➡️ See our dedicated page for Corporate/Office Detection
Vehicle
Cockpit and risk areas according to configuration and accessibility, search for onboard tracking or capture devices.
Objective: Check for any trackers and limit the risks associated with vehicle access.
➡️ See our dedicated page for Vehicle tracker and GPS detection
What we are looking for
Depending on the context, a mission can aim for:
- spy micro (local capture or transmission),
- hidden camera (hidden camera integrated into an object),
- standalone recorder internal storage,
- GPS tracker / geolocation beacon,
- diverted devices or objects ( “practical” accessories, cases, connected objects).
The goal is not to assign blame. The goal is to secure and of sustainably reduce the risk.
Our 6-step method
01
Scoping and Prioritization
To clarify: context, priority areas, constraints (activity, discretion, deadline), and expected level of control.
A well-defined perimeter almost always yields a better result than a perimeter that is too broad and “skimmed over.”.
02
In-depth physical inspection
Systematic search for possible hiding places: objects, supplies, furniture, fixed elements, accessible technical areas.
03
On-site technical inspections
Checks consistent with the site and its uses: radio environment, equipment present, operating constraints.
04
Targeted checks on sensitive areas
In-depth look at critical areas: meeting room, executive office, room related to leaks, affected vehicle, etc.
05
Factual summary
Clear restitution:
- what was checked,
- what could not be (if constrained),
- Findings and points of attention.
06
Recommendations and hardening
Immediate measures + prevention plan: habits, access, procedures, simple accommodations.
Goal: prevent the problem from recurring... and prevent doubt from recurring.
Deliverables: what you receive
According to the mission:
Deadlines and duration factors
There is no single duration. What varies the intervention time is:
The right approach: prioritize and move forward with a clear scope.
Choose the right scope

No. A detection evaluates a perimeter to one given moment. A device can be fitted later. Hence the importance of prevention recommendations.
Yes. The organization is based on your constraints: priority areas, schedules, discretion, and minimal disruption.
Yes, and that's often the best strategy: it's better to have a focused perimeter that is taken seriously.
Yes. The mission can be dedicated to the vehicle or integrated into a global intervention.
Often not. False positives and false negatives are frequent. A structured approach is better than an isolated “test.”.
Avoid dismantling, moving, discarding, or “testing” suspicious objects. Also, avoid discussing them in affected areas if the doubt is serious.
It's common. We start by framing: facts, timeline, access, correlations. Sometimes, simple measures suffice. Sometimes, verification is relevant.
Yes. That's a logical request: secure the location before the deadline and implement a simple confidentiality protocol.
We take into account the equipment present within the perimeter and propose recommendations adapted to the context.
You will receive a clear and structured report. If the objective is evidentiary, it must be framed from the outset (scope, preservation, strategy).
The cost depends on the scope, the surface area, and the level of requirement. The simplest way is to indicate the location + surface area + urgency.
Yes, especially for high-stakes environments (management, offices, sensitive sites). Periodic audits instill discipline and reduce risk.
Often yes, depending on access and organizational constraints.
Yes. It's even common when signals appear correlated with multiple environments.
The right reflex: document (inventory photos), limit sensitive exchanges on-site, then frame a verification if the doubt is serious.
A brief discussion: type of location, surface area, deadline, priority areas. We propose a perimeter and a suitable organization.
