About Technical Surveillance Countermeasures

Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) uses disciplined inspection and assessment methods to identify potential electronic surveillance risks in offices, residences, vehicles, meeting rooms and other sensitive environments. A sweep may support a sensitive meeting, suspected compromise, high-value dispute or recurring assurance programme.

GTS scopes each engagement around the client’s concern, environment, operating pattern and evidence requirements. TSCM is distinct from guarding or close protection; associated private-security activity uses appropriately authorised personnel where SIA licensing applies, while personal data and recorded findings are handled under agreed UK GDPR and information-governance controls.

How We Work

Every GTS engagement follows a proven methodology - from initial threat assessment through ongoing operations.

01

Threat Assessment

We begin with a confidential consultation to understand your environment, principal profile, and specific risk factors — building an accurate threat picture before any deployment.

02

Program Design

Our security architects design a programme tailored to your requirements - selecting the right personnel, technology, and protocols to address your specific threat environment.

03

Team Deployment

We deploy vetted professionals with the right skills and background for your program — integrating seamlessly into your environment from day one.

04

Ongoing Operations

Continuous monitoring, daily reporting, and regular program reviews ensure your protection adapts as your risk environment evolves.

The GTS Standard

Discreet. Professional.
Effective.

GTS treats inspection findings as sensitive information. Scope, access, evidence handling, reporting, and remediation responsibilities are agreed before work begins.

Business Insider recently featured GTS in a profile on elite private security - a recognition of the training programme and operational culture that CEO Kenneth Bombace has built since founding the firm.
