Muting your Digital Video Camera Microphone for a Surveillance Investigation
With some electronics background and experience, a competent person can remove the wired circuit belonging to the microphone of a digital video camera, to mute the audio recording of the digital video camera, where the audio recording can't be stopped from the digital video camera controls.
This process requires a jeweller's screwdriver set and very steady hands. The microphone needs to be located on the outside body surface of the digital video camera, then when the casing of the digital video camera is unscrewed & opened, you can determine where the microphones wiring will terminate from.
You can then follow the microphone wires back to the circuit board that may only require a circuit board wire connector to be removed from the circuit board, to break the microphone circuit.
The benefit of this process if performed carefully, allows the circuit of the microphone to be restored at a later date if needed. The process is definitely not recommended where working on the digital video camera will void any current warranty of a digital video camera.
During a surveillance investigation, it is necessary to have the audio muted on a digital video camera due to privacy and the Listening Devices Act.

Strategic Control Plan in Dealing with Fraud & Corruption
An organisation or a business has a responsibility to protect against attempts by a person to gain by deceit, information, assets, money or other inappropriate benefit or advantage. A fraud control plan is a building block to an ethical and successful organisation.
Fraud prevention and control is the responsibility of all staff and all levels of management, and not just selected people within an organisation or a business.
Our Strategic Control Plan in Dealing with Fraud & Corruption will be achieved by implementing these concepts with a rigorous standard of investigation into allegations of misconduct, including fraud.
Please visit the web site link below to our Strategic Control Plan in Dealing with Fraud & Corruption.

Social Networks a Goldmine of Information
People are not using as much discretion as they should when communicating on social networks like Facebook and Twitter.
It becomes easy for competitors to mine information about relationships when people link to their friends and communicate online. If a competitor is watching, valuable information could be obtained by connecting the dots.

Reasons why a Background Check is Conducted
Background checks are effective in finding out more about a job applicant, business partner or an individual which you may be considering developing a relationship with.
You could be separating in a marriage and concerned about your ex marital partner's new partner for safety and security concerns of your children. There could be an employment position within your business that requires handling sensitive information or assets securely and honestly. It could be quite important to know if a potential business partner has a good credit history and what liability a potential business partner has, if you are considering a new business venture together.
A civil and criminal records check can reveal important information. A business vulnerable to fraud will need to know if a job applicant has a background of theft or fraud related crimes. It is important to know in a child custody matter, if a person has a sex crimes background. If you are interviewing an employee for a particular job position, it is important to know if the job applicant has a civil litigation background from a workers compensation claim, just to be aware of any past injuries that could become aggravated in a certain employment position.
Corporate records are a resource that should be checked when you don't know a lot about a new business partner and you are considering undertaking a new venture involving assets. Corporate records can reveal liability of a potential business partner and other corporate entities that a potential business partner is still involved with or has been involved with. Litigation information of current or past legal matters is also important to know.
