Small Businesses are especially vulnerable when it comes to Industrial espionage. Owners and employees of these businesses often have the majority of contact with potential clients and partners. They may be the ones who collect market research or discuss new products in development.

Small Businesses are also more likely to use unsecured means of communication, like personal smartphones and email. This leaves them open to malicious actors who could hack these businesses to gather information about the company.

To protect your business, you should consider using Small Business Bug Sweeps to ensure that your sensitive information is not compromised. These sweeps can be conducted by a professional security firm like COMSCAN TSCM and will help to identify any eavesdropping devices that may have been placed in your office or on your personal devices.

Whether your business is large or small, you must protect your interests. The competitive nature of today’s business culture and the abundance of spy gear available to anyone have paved the way for malicious actors wanting the goods.

Industrial Espionage is no longer limited to multinational and Fortune 500 Companies.

Startups and venture companies are routinely targeted by competitors, foreign governments and employees wanting to go out on their own. Assuming your business will not be targeted can lead to ruin. No matter what business you are involved with, it always comes back to protecting your information, your company’s worth, clients and stakeholders.

Why are Small Business Bug Sweeps Important?

Small businesses are just as vulnerable to industrial espionage as large businesses, if not more so. The reason is that small businesses often don’t have the same level of security in place, and they may not be aware of the dangers of industrial espionage.

A spy can easily gain access to sensitive information or steal trade secrets if proper security measures aren’t in place.

Bug sweeps are important for small businesses because they help safeguard against the dangers of industrial espionage. A bug sweep can detect hidden cameras, audio recorders, and other spy devices that may be installed in your office.

By detecting and removing these threats, you can protect your business from data theft, intellectual property theft, and other forms of industrial espionage.

 

Common Reasons for Small Business Surveillance 

Small businesses are often targets of surveillance for a variety of reasons, including the following:

  1. To gain an advantage over a competitor.
  2. To try to steal business ideas or intellectual property.
  3. In family law matters, to gain information about a spouse’s business valuation.
  4. In disputes between business partners, to spy on the other party.
  5. In active litigation between two companies, one business may seek an advantage over the other by spying on them.

What Our Clients Say

My company was being spied on by competitors. I knew what they were looking for from outside sources but I did not know how they were going about it. I hired COMSCAN to find out how and where the leaks were originating. Hiring them was a wise decision. Stephen was thorough and knowledgeable.  After discovering a major problem area he continued on in a tenacious manner and found another source of the information leaks. He also provided me with some useful recommendations after he finished.
