Our Mission

To transform electronic spectral patterns into actionable intelligence through advanced monitoring, collection, and analysis technology.

Intelligence Gap

The Challenge & Our Answer

Modern electronic environments demand a new approach to signal intelligence.

01

Problem Statement

  • Law enforcement and government agencies lack visibility into the electronic activity surrounding their operations and facilities.
  • Single-protocol tools monitor one signal type at a time, missing critical cross-device patterns that reveal suspect behavior.
  • Existing solutions require dedicated RF specialists to operate, creating bottlenecks in time-sensitive investigations.

02

Solution

  • Multi-protocol passive monitoring platform covering WiFi, Bluetooth, cellular, and IoT.
  • Environmental adaptation with ML-based pattern recognition and fingerprinting.
  • Real-time analysis for anomaly detection and predictive intelligence.

03

Operational Benefits

  • Force-multiplying intelligence that reduces manpower requirements for electronic surveillance operations.
  • Early detection of unauthorized devices, rogue cell towers, and counter-surveillance equipment.
  • Fully passive collection — zero electronic emissions that could compromise officer safety or tip off targets.
  • Court-admissible reporting with chain-of-custody metadata and tamper-evident logging.

04

Why Signal Scout

  • Only platform that correlates WiFi, Bluetooth, cellular, and IoT signals into a unified intelligence picture.
  • AI-driven environmental baselining eliminates false positives — alerts you to what matters.
  • Modular architecture allows new protocol modules to be deployed without hardware changes.
  • Purpose-built for government procurement with GSA Schedule availability and FedRAMP-aligned options.

Threat Assessment

The Threat Landscape

Criminal organizations and persons of interest increasingly rely on consumer wireless devices to coordinate activity — burner phones, encrypted messaging apps, Bluetooth dead drops, WiFi hotspots, and IoT-connected vehicles. Yet most agencies still monitor these signals one protocol at a time, creating blind spots that sophisticated targets exploit daily. As the electronic footprint of criminal activity grows exponentially, the intelligence gap between what suspects transmit and what law enforcement can see continues to widen.

Capability Response

The Signal Scout Advantage

Signal Scout closes this intelligence gap by passively monitoring the full consumer wireless spectrum — cellular, WiFi, Bluetooth, and IoT — and correlating signals across protocols to build a unified picture of electronic activity. The result is actionable intelligence delivered to investigators and analysts in real time, without requiring dedicated RF expertise to operate or any electronic emissions that could compromise an operation.

Signal Processing Chain

How It Works

Three layers of intelligence working together to deliver unmatched situational awareness.

01

Comprehensive Spectrum Monitoring

Build a comprehensive signal analysis platform that monitors across the entire consumer wireless spectrum — from Bluetooth and WiFi to cellular and emerging IoT protocols. Unlike single-protocol solutions, our technology creates a complete picture of electronic activity in any environment.

02

Environmental Adaptation

Enhance raw signal detection with environmental adaptation capabilities. Our system learns the normal patterns of each unique deployment location, automatically adjusting its sensitivity and analysis parameters to maximize detection accuracy while minimizing false positives.

03

ML-Powered Insights

Leverage advanced machine learning to transform signal data into meaningful insights. By recognizing complex temporal patterns and correlations across multiple protocols, our platform doesn't just detect devices — it understands behaviors, identifies anomalies, and predicts future activity patterns.
