Boardroom Eavesdropping

Checking for bugs in the boardroom, even more important than ordering lunch for the execs

Checking for bugs in the boardroom, even more important than ordering lunch for the execs.  Call us if you need a bug-killer®.

Who would eavesdrop on the board meeting? Our experience is that employee curiosity is as powerful a driver as competitive pressures. Anyone with access to the room can plant:

  • High tech baby monitors
  • Tiny voice recorders that can run for a week
  • Keystroke loggers to grab the chairman’s password
  • A ‘forgotten’ cellphone that silently answers when called

When physical access is not possible we have discovered:

  • Wireless microphone leakage
  • Audio systems that auto answer incoming calls
  • Nearby offices that share walls (and share sound)

Case study: Bad corporate decisions

The company was making a historic decision from their newly appointed facility in a Seattle highrise.

Unfortunately the microphones used for presenters did not encrypt their radio transmissions. Our test indicated that their signals could be intercepted with common handheld radio equipment far below on the street.

The brand new conference call hardware autoanswered our test calls. This allowed anyone on the planet with a wardialer to discover how to listen in during senior executive meetings.

Our strong recommendations for more security for the board were ignored. Financial advisers were also ignored… the company is now gone.
