Frequently asked questions

What is corporate counter-interference?

Counter-interference protects an organisation's information assets against capture by competitors or state actors. It qualifies the actors likely to target the company, then puts proportionate protective measures in place, up to the detection of covert listening and video devices.

When should a counter-interference assignment be triggered?

When you hold coveted know-how, patents or client data, when key staff are approached by false recruiters or investors, when you observe unjustified access or repeated visits, or when you need to protect a high-stakes operation (M&A, R&D, negotiation).

How does Coreo proceed?

Coreo qualifies the actors likely to target the company (methods, motivations, means), designs proportionate protective measures (information handling protocols, travel security, project compartmentalisation), searches for covert devices through technical surveillance countermeasures (TSCM) and trains the exposed teams in detecting hostile approaches.

What does the client receive, and how long does it take?

A vulnerability report, a protection plan and a team awareness kit. The initial audit takes 3 to 5 weeks; training, 1 to 2 days per group.
