Idaho Bug Sweeps | Professional TSCM Services

Discreet Services provides expert Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) across the state of Idaho. Also known as a bug sweep, this service detects and identifies hidden surveillance devices in homes, offices, and vehicles.

Originally a term used in military and intelligence work, TSCM now refers to professional-level inspections for covert cameras, microphones, GPS trackers, and other eavesdropping tools. Whether you're a business owner, private individual, or public figure, the goal is the same: to ensure your space hasn’t been compromised.

Our experienced TSCM team is equipped with industry-leading equipment including RF signal detectors, thermal imaging cameras, non-linear junction detectors (NLJD), and advanced physical inspection tools. We’ve performed sweeps in all types of environments, from downtown condos and suburban homes to commercial and agricultural facilities.
