What Is TSCM Detection ?

CAPHEX Investgate Audit

TSCM (Technical Surveillance Countermeasures) is the professional discipline used to detect, locate, investigate and help mitigate unauthorized surveillance and technical security threats.

A professional TSCM inspection may combine several technologies because an RF detector, spectrum analyzer, NLJD, camera detector and wireline analyzer each address different types of threats.

This distinction is important for both professional operators and security decision-makers. Industry sources similarly distinguish RF detection, spectrum analysis, NLJD and physical/optical inspection as different parts of a broader TSCM approach.
