This is the Summer of Spies

The summer of 2010 will be remembered as the hottest on record. It might also surpass previous records as a silly season for federal government spending.

But there is another accolade in the offing -- the summer of spies. At home, our spy chief, Richard Fadden, popped up on TV to warn about agents of influence at their insidious work in provincial cabinets and B.C. municipal politics. The United States and Russia swapped a bag of spies, with the U.S. ridding itself of 10 not-very-successful Russian agents and springing some valuable pros from Russian jails in return. more

Radio Receiver Modifications

Lynch Investigations & Countermeasures Pty Ltd continues to use radio technology for its technical investigation work. We also keep abreast of the latest radio receiver modifications.

Onboard circuit changes or component additions can allow a radio receiver to perform additional functions.

Removing a resistor from a circuit can unblock cell phone frequencies, for monitoring use in some countries still using analogue cell phone communications.

Moving a resistor on a radio receiver onboard circuit, can change frequency bandwidth output of a radio receiver. Frequency display bandwidth is analysed using Software Defined Radio (SDR) as spectrum analysers connected to radio receivers.

Simple modifications can be completed by technically skilled persons that may not necessarily be radio engineers.

The mods dk web site is where you can learn about radio receiver modifications. There is a forum for discussion about matters of interest as well as radio receiver modifications document downloads, radio receiver manuals and picture downloads.

It's free to create an account with the mods dk web site. A user is also able to download one free radio receiver modification, every 24 hours or pay a small fee for access to all available radio receiver modification downloads.

The mods dk web site is an interesting resource where we have gained much knowledge to make low cost modifications to our high tech radio receiver equipment.

Reverse Telephone Search

Once again a new Australian reverse telephone search tool is available online. This reverse telephone search tool is not like many others that we have had to subscribe to in the past that have had high costs. It is free to use.

This reverse telephone search tool is particularly useful in locating people for collection purposes. It is also useful for finding missing family, friends or business contacts etc...

I have noticed with this reverse telephone search tool, a person running a search can search on a street in a suburb or a surname in a suburb or town. You just need to use the first few appropriate letters in the surname, to get to the right results page for your surname search.

Any way, I hope you get some helpful use out of the reverse telephone search tool.

Spying At Work – Espionage, Who, How, Why, How To Stop It

When our staff is with clients at their business location, there are many occasions when a staff member of the client's business, will be identified arriving at the workplace after hours and rummaging through their colleague's office unlocked drawers & unlocked filing cabinets.

If a computer is left turned on with email programs open, a business colleague or unsupervised contractor can read or copy confidential information and pass that information on to competitors or anyone with a commercial interest.

A few tips that we would like to assure your business is aware of, are to log off computers when unattended and reduce the computer screen saver time to a minimum of 1 minute. On resume password protect the computer to disallow access to confidential computer information through spying at work.

Locating cross shredders to executive office areas is also necessary even if your business is using secure document handling services and a secure document bin.

Many people have access to confidential documentation through secure document handling services, where there are no confidentiality agreements or security in place. Paper recycling factories are one that comes to mind, where confidential documentation is exposed insecurely.

It is good practice to ensure that office drawers and filing cabinets are locked always and a secure key system is in place for those drawers and filing cabinets.

The You Tube video below provides some additional information about Industrial Espionage.

Take a minute to watch the Industrial Espionage video. It will help you to make some further informed business decisions about your businesses risk management.
