Espionage Research Institute International

The former ERI organization has been reorganized and is now ERII, the Espionage Research Institute International.

 

The membership of ERII consists of counterespionage/counterintelligence professionals, Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) practitioners, business and corporate executives who have security responsibilities, as well as newcomers to the profession. “Technical Surveillance Counter Measures” is the industry term for security work that includes debugging sweeps, wiretap detection, and related countersurveillance activities. The purpose of TSCM is to help businesses and individuals protect themselves from unauthorized and illegal spying activities. One of the main functions of ERII is to help maintain high ethical standards in the counterespionage/counterintelligence and TSCM field.

 

ERII is an exclusive organization. Those interested in joining should review the ERII Code of ethics and may contact ERII for further information.
