Surveillance Investigations
Our discreet surveillance operations utilise advanced techniques including foot patrols, vehicle monitoring, and real-time digital reporting. Clients receive immediate WhatsApp updates with photographic evidence during active investigations. All operations comply with legal standards and human rights legislation, ensuring admissible evidence collection for both personal and corporate clients.
Lie Detector Tests
Portable lie detection equipment measures physiological responses with trained operators administering up to 20 custom questions. Results provided within hours using ISO-certified methodologies. Alternative polygraph services available through qualified subcontractors for enhanced accuracy requirements in critical cases.
Digital Forensics
Specialist software enables non-invasive mobile phone monitoring including message recovery, GPS tracking, and internet activity. Services operate within legal frameworks under Article 8 of the Human Rights Act, with technical support available throughout the monitoring period.
Background Checks
Comprehensive background profiling examines personal and professional histories using multiple verification channels. Standard four-day turnaround includes cross-referencing of digital footprints, employment records, and social connections to establish complete subject profiles for security or relationship purposes.

Specialist equipment detects both transmitting and passive recording devices in vehicles, offices, or residential properties to protect sensitive information and personal privacy.
