Debugging & Countermeasures

Barefoot PI is the most trusted technical surveillance & countermeasure service in the Carolinas.

As technology evolves and our society becomes more reliant on data collection, the threat of being a target of technical surveillance has become a very real concern for many. Some may think the chances of being a victim to this is unlikely, but for others it’s an extremely real and frightening possibility. Businesses are becoming increasingly competitive, making industrial espionage a very real possibility in densely populated metropolitan areas. Domestic disputes around infidelity and child-custody often use surveillance or hidden recording devices to show wrongdoing.

What are signs that you're being surveilled?

While devices have become increasingly advanced, those who might be surveilling you may not have access to these high-end devices. Some basic methods for checking your space include:

• Listen for high-pitched humming sounds in spaces where no electronic devices should be in operation
• New hotspots or networks detected by your router that you don’t recognize
• Look for new or out-of-place wirings or plugs
• Identify strange behavior on your digital devices
  

Why use countermeasures for unwanted surveillance?

Regardless of why you believe you may be under surveillance, Barefoot PI believes that everyone should have peace of mind knowing that their home, workplaces, and vehicle are uncompromised by listening devices or video recording equipment. However, finding help can be tricky, especially in the Carolinas, where a license to perform debugging services is required. But for more than 10 years, Barefoot Professional Investigations has been a licensed provider of not only debugging services but also countermeasures to electronic surveillance.

Barefoot Professional Investigations works with you to minimize cost and focus resources where they are most needed to gain the highest quality results.

There are times that things must be done on the fly, and the professional judgment exercised by this firm has at times saved valuable information from being lost because of the passage of time or opportunity.
