Counter Monitoring & Information Protection
Effective counter monitoring and information protection depend on a clear understanding of the electromagnetic environment and the ability to identify, assess, and control unwanted or unauthorized signals. Spectrum monitoring is not limited to detection alone. It supports security teams in preventing information leakage, identifying covert surveillance activity, and maintaining control over sensitive communication channels in operational, governmental, and critical infrastructure environments.
The unival approach to spectrum monitoring is based on continuous situational awareness, operational clarity, and controlled response. Rather than relying on isolated tools, unival spectrum guard brings together detection, analysis, access control, and secure communication into a coordinated framework. This allows security teams to move from passive monitoring to informed decision making while maintaining compliance with legal and regulatory requirements.
Within this approach, dedicated hardware and software components work together to support different operational needs. USG20 provides spectrum monitoring and signal awareness capabilities to detect and observe radio frequency activity within defined areas. HCM1 supports targeted inspection and localization tasks where deeper analysis of suspicious emissions is required. NLJDmini adds the ability to identify electronic devices that may be concealed or inactive, supporting counter surveillance and technical security inspections.
These monitoring capabilities are complemented by system level control and protection layers. uniXPASS manages access and operational authorization, ensuring that monitoring and response actions are restricted to approved users and roles. Secure communication solutions protect sensitive voice and data exchanges, reducing the risk of interception, manipulation, or unauthorized disclosure during operations.
Together, unival spectrum guard supports a structured and reliable approach to counter monitoring and information protection. It enables organizations to detect threats early, protect sensitive information, and maintain control over their electromagnetic and communication environment without disrupting legitimate operations.
WHY CONVENTIONAL SOLUTIONS FAIL
THE PROBLEM
Conventional TSCM-Sweeps (Technical Surveillance Counter Measures)
Complex, costly, not scalable
Only effective in specific cases – no real-time protection
Prohibition of mobile devices
Often circumvented, difficult to control
Cyber security-only approaches
Do not solve physical manipulation,
Eavesdropping or data leakage via Bluetooth/5G/Wi-Fi
Implementation of new technologies
Drones and SIGINT influences
Frequency band is becoming increasingly wider (Starlink & new communicationtools)
THE THREATS ARE REAL
Modern covert transmitters are small, powerful, and extremely hard to detect. They can be hidden in everyday objects, operate on low power, and transmit only briefly—making them nearly invisible in the RF spectrum.
Handheld sweepers cannot reliably detect devices that use burst transmission, frequency hopping, signal masking, or that remain inactive during a sweep. Threats can also be planted immediately after a manual check.
For dependable RF security, continuous real‑time TSCM monitoring through an In‑Place Monitoring System is essential.
THE unival SOLUTION
SECURITY BY PROCESS
GOAL: A scalable, digital protection concept
- Physical security
- Digital control
- Legally compliant documentation
- Easy operation even by non-specialists
combined – with high transparency and without the opacity of manual sweeps.
THE BASIC APPROACH: "Security by Process"
Instead of isolated individual measures, the concept is based on a complete security workflow that is digitally controlled by the uniXPASS platform.
2. The area is continuously monitored with intelligent video analytics and frequency detection to prevent hidden listening devices, even outside opening hours. During conversations, unival systems actively scan for suspicious transmission signals, which are immediately detected, analyzed, and jammed.
The unival USG continuous TSCM monitoring system is a cost-effective alternative to bug sweeping and cUAS strategies with guaranteed detection 24/7, 365 days a year. unival USG is a frequency spectrum monitoring system, continuously monitoring the RF environment to instantly detect suspect signals in real time. Fast sweep speeds and low noise figures allow USG sensors to detect even the lowest-power, shortest-duration signals. These intelligent sensors, combined with the unival Spectrum Guard software suite, operate autonomously and when a signal is detected, the unival USG system can provide real-time analysis, an alert and location to a security guard in a command center or send alerts by email, SMS or messenger. unival USG can be deployed as a fixed installation or mobile solution.
