TSCM, or Technical Surveillance Countermeasures, is the process of locating and identifying surveillance devices that may be used to spy on individuals or organizations. TSCM professionals use specialized equipment and techniques to sweep an area for hidden cameras, microphones, tracking devices, and other covert surveillance tools. By conducting regular TSCM sweeps, organizations can protect their privacy and confidential information from potential eavesdropping or data breaches.

TSCM involves a thorough and systematic sweep of an area (inner sanctum, no-mobile designated area, crisis / briefing rooms, data rooms, quantum labs etc) to detect any hidden surveillance devices such as bugs, hidden cameras, or wiretaps. This process typically involves using specialized equipment such as spectrum analyzers and non-linear junction detectors to detect electronic signals and hidden devices.
It almost certainly involves designated in-building zone monitoring as well as immediate external permitter monitoring.
