Newsletter September 2010

September 2010 has been a busy month. An interesting request this month was unclaimed money searches which we were successful in locating unclaimed money for various clients. Anybody in need of this service, please feel free to contact us at any time.

All we need to search for unclaimed money is a date of birth, old and current address information and a full name. We will also need proof of identity for the person we are searching for unclaimed money for.

We created a new web page for our web site that can be sent to clients who need an accurate quotation for a bug sweep (TSCM) service. Our new TSCM Quotation Information Worksheet is detailed and allows a client to input specific details about a site where an inspection is needed. Once the TSCM Quotation Information Worksheet is filled in by a client and returned to us, we will submit an accurate quotation to the client. Anybody needing the new TSCM Quotation Information Worksheet, should contact us so we can forward that on via email.

Lynch Investigations & Countermeasures Pty Ltd upgraded their TSCM equipment to compliment further assistance to corporate clients in need of electronic eavesdropping detection. We now sweep and office environment to 20 GHz with spectral analysis, including our thorough physical inspection and comprehensive risk management reporting. We have had the new equipment out on a few tasks this month and it is performing nicely.

We are also still handing surveillance work and inquiries for Family Law matters. With couples separating, surveillance remains demanding due to child custody concerns with court orders in place, allowing us to provide surveillance to ensure the conditions of those court orders are being complied with.

There are still those locating inquiries coming in with some clients needing searches completed to satisfy the court's requirements for substitute service. At times when warrants are in place and a change of name by deed poll has occurred, it is understandable why substitute service is necessary. Please get in contact with us about data searches for legal locating tasks as needed.

That rounds it up for this last month's brief overview and the first day of October 2010. We look forward to communicating with you all again at the end of this month or early next month in November 2010.

The Stuxnet Outbreak - A Worm In The Centrifuge

It sounds like the plot of an airport thriller or a James Bond film. A crack team of experts, assembled by a shadowy government agency, develops a cyber-weapon designed to shut down a rogue country’s nuclear programme.

The software uses previously unknown tricks to worm its way into industrial control systems undetected, searching for a particular configuration that matches its target—at which point it wreaks havoc by reprogramming the system, closing valves and shutting down pipelines. more

Wiretapping The Internet

On Monday, The New York Times reported that President Obama will seek sweeping laws enabling law enforcement to more easily eavesdrop on the internet.

Technologies are changing, the administration argues, and modern digital systems aren't as easy to monitor as traditional telephones. more
