The difference between Surveillance and Counter surveillance.

Surveillance implies the monitoring of the activities of an individual or persons, a place, or an object. And Counter Surveillance is used to help you recognize that you are under surveillance and suitable countermeasures are required.

Counter Surveillance can be performed in a few of the forms below.

Fixed surveillance – is conducted by one or more parties that position themselves in inconspicuous locations for extended periods of time to gather information on a potential target.

Foot surveillance – is conducted by operatives that are on foot and mobile with the ability to collect information as they move from one location to another. These individuals may either pose as lost tourists or attempt to blend into nearby crowds of bystanders. Operatives may either utilize cell phone cameras, still and video photography or hand held tape recorders to gather information on a potential target site

Vehicular surveillance – is conducted by operatives that utilize various modes of transportation such as mass transit (trains, buses, ferries, aircraft etc.) automobiles and other common vehicles. These individuals may pose as ordinary mass transit patrons and utilize cell phone cameras, still and video photography, note pads, sketch books and hand-held tape recorders to gather information on a potential target site. Operatives may often work in teams of two or more when conducting vehicular surveillance. Ideal locations for surveillance include areas with easy public access, multiple points of egress and views of the target site. These locations can include courtyards, bus stops, parking lots, public and semi-private roads, accessible roof tops of adjacent buildings, nearby bridges and overpasses. Adjacent wooded areas and abandon structures can also provide cover and allow views of a potential target site; these locations should be documented and routinely patrolled. An active security presence will deprive terrorist operatives of a safe haven for the collection of crucial information on a selected target.
