Covert Surveillance

Detailed, Intelligent and Focused
Icon: Covert Surveillance

Surveillance is covert when the subject or subjects of the investigation are unaware they are being watched. It can be either directed surveillance or intrusive surveillance.

They both have to abide by the UK’s Covert Surveillance and Property Interference Code of Practice

Directed surveillances covertly monitor a person’s or group of people’s movements, conversations and other activities. The work demands highly skilled specialists who use various means to maintain their eyes and ears on the person of interest at all times, either by operating on foot, in vehicles, on the premises or from special observation posts.

Intrusive surveillances covertly monitor people and groups of people by, for example, using an eavesdropping device in an office or inside a vehicle. To put your mind at rest, we can even bring sophisticated counter surveillance equipment into play to find out if anyone is carrying out electronic surveillance on you.
