Exam 4 07-14 Electronc Surveillance Techniques Flashcards
EPO 2
Identify considerations for using Electronic Surveillance Equipment as well as applicable protocols to conduct technical operations or investigations
Lighting
Available
IR lighting, will reflect white in ISO
EPO 1
Identify the various types of Electronic Surveillance Equipment, technologies, and their characteristics used in inv and operations
Technical Surveillance
Audio surveillance
Video surveillance
electronic tracking or signal surveillance
extends and enhances the inv basic senses of sight and sound ie, mic or binoculars
- ability to observe and record the crime as iit happens and preserve the CS aft the crime
- provide irrefutable evidence (genuine proof) of criminal culpability
- one of most controversial and intrusive of all covert LEO activites
Technical surveillance
are extremely effective
- usually resulting in guilty plea
- are involved in the most sensitive of all crim inv for their respective dept and agency
- may consume a lot of time and planning, execution and expense
Electronic Surveillance
Reasons to use ESE Electronic Surveillance Equipment
-gather evidence
-Protect safety of UC or CI
-allow documents of crimes as they occur
-fulfilling other invest needs
-
ESE considerations
- importance of the investigation vs. the cost
- Agent safety v evidence
- safety of the agent during installation
- Force Multiplier
- Duration considerations longer the time= more money, personnel issues, Equipment failures
Recording or monitoring conversation either in person or via wire
-18 USC sec 2511:2ii Bc
Audio Intercept
-consensual (one party) CI gives you consent bf they make a deal with the bad guy (shall not be lawful under this chap for a person action under color of law to intercept a wire, oral, or electronic comm where such person is a party to
2 types of audio intercept device use in UC operations
1 recorder-body worn recorder is the primary method of collecting recorded evidence
2 transmitter-
-provide for Officer safety Both preferred
-real time monitoring of convo
-transmitted or hardwired/ -concealed /Recorders
-Disguised transmitters
electronic tracking
Vehicles, packages, people -provide a history and permanent recored -cost effective -easy to use -improve agent safety -
GPS communicate with satellites
-Memory Tracking no live transmission only in memory
simple installation (slap n Dash)/detailed list of sus movements
-easily correlated to other surveillance/ info can be sent to others
-have to access the vehicle twice when put on and taken off
-wait to get the info
Live Tracking-sends pings and update in real time,
Live Tracking limitations
-live data where it is located-watch in real time
-memory tracking remote access
give info no delay
options allow control over the target vehicle
Disguised Video Sur systems pole cameras-camera concealed Remote unattended VSS-sensor activated RF vido Tr Sensor activated video-self contained veideo sur systems
Video Surveillance
Sensor Activated Video
-Self contained video surveillance systems
Camera
photo or video
when do you need to consider using remote unattended video
-rual, cant get to the location
Types of External Senors
-Seismic Passive infrared Active infrared Magnetic Disguised Log Camera
focus on the techniques and methodologies used in the investigation of WI-FI incidents
Wi-Fi Network investigation
