Some of the most sensitive, private, and confidential information is shared in both corporate and government conference rooms. Discussions of corporate strategy, trade secrets, and litigation matters are all highly sensitive, while also frequently discussed in a conference room.
We do conference room bug sweeps as regularly as you want to ensure that what’s said in the conference room, stays in the conference room.
Common Reasons for Conference Room Bug Sweeps
Corporate spying happens. Corporations, governments, and non-profits all need to maintain the privacy of confidential information. Whether protecting trade secrets, or their clients’ privacy, our clients often cite the following reasons for why they called us:
- Upcoming meetings with a major client to ensure confidentiality;
- Discussions with legal counsel regarding litigation strategy;
- Sharing proprietary information that must be kept from competitors.

Common Targets of Corporate Spying
Frequently, corporate spies are looking for either company-specific information to seek an advantage. However, sometimes your client’s data is the reason for the spying. Common information targeted by spies includes:
- Trade Secrets. Competitors will try to beat you to market with new products or services. Exposed trade secrets make you vulnerable to this unfair competition.
- Client Information. Do you have high-value clients whose own competitors want their confidential information?
- Financial Information. Information about high performing employee benefits packages or potential business deals are susceptible to disclosure and will weaken your position.
- Marketing Information. This information helps competitors interrupt your marketing campaigns and reduce their efficacy.
How it Happens
Corporate espionage typically takes one of two forms, 1- an individual shares information with a competitor, or 2 – a competitor uses technology to gain information through cyber-attacks or malware installations.
