Counter Surveillance Training
Security vendors sell a vast range of counter-surveillance devices for detecting audio bugs, hidden cameras, and other forms of high-tech espionage. However, no matter how sophisticated the technology, these tools possess little value without proper training on their use. Counter-surveillance training courses often specialize in specific kinds of operations (e.g., anti-terrorism, law enforcement, private eye) so the discriminating security officer will have little trouble finding a suitable facility for his line of work.
