We have now posted the 2017 training dates for all of our currently available certification and standard training programs, conducted at our Resident Training Centre (RTC) in Cornwall Ontario, and at our new Research and Development Training Centre (RDTC) in Red Deer Alberta.

Please note that additional custom closed door training is scheduled for law-enforcement, government and military entities, both at our resident and non-resident facilities and client conducted on-site training outside of our commercial programs. For information contact our office for details.

The commissioning of our Research and Development Training Centre (RDTC) in Alberta Canada, brings new and accelerated research, innovation, and opportunity, in both advanced training and our product development efforts.

Our TSS program has received a tremendous content update leading up to the 2017 schedule during the past year, given the vast changes in equipment resources, and a significant shift toward a modernized threat model.

Our approach as the only standards based certification program available, based on the TSB 2000 (Technical) Standard ^TM continues to adapt and expand, raising the professional development bar, across the technical security industry.

There are three (3) simply defined training paths to consider;

14-Day | Technical Security Specialist (TSS) | Designate Certification Program | Ideal for those just starting out in the technical security field and ideal for seasoned professionals looking to modernize their approach to conducting technical security sweeps. This program covers virtually everything under the banner of technical security and includes the 5-day Technical Analyst Certification (TAC), which by design includes the 3-day Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Technical Operator Certification training. This program brings significant value in the development of operational skills.

5-Day | Technical Analyst Certification (TAC) Program | This is program is designed for both current operators and those individuals and entities considering procurement of the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software. The program not only includes full Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Operator Certification, but also includes two (2) additional days dedicated to Kestrel Analytics ^TM as part of the  advanced Operator Certification for the Kestrel ^® Software. Understanding the unique design of the Kestrel ^® software in a modern threat environment, is essential to getting the most value out of your software investment.

3-Day | Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Technical Operator Certification | This is perhaps the most essential training for anyone currently utilizing the Kestrel ^® software, or might be anticipating procurement in the future. This program instructs participants the new technical threat model, leaving the competition in the, "that's so 1970's" mind-set, that many operators still embrace, believing they only require a flashlight and ladder to conduct their inspections. Software defined Radio (SDR) technology has radically disrupted the old, out-date and obsolete threat model, essentially left over from the cold-war era. The Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software has proven to be an industry disruptive technology, with a fresh approach that focuses on a modernized threat model and the reality of Probability of Detection (POD) by the numbers, as part of a new approach to Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) and Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) ^TM .

Our dedicated classrooms permit training to be maximized, efficiently compressing the amount of time required to complete the training, by the use of a maximum effort training agenda that extends training from 0830 to 2130 with classes in the morning, afternoon and some evenings, making use of as much of the time that participants are on site, compressing the required training time to just 14-days, rather than 21-days, or 5-days rather than 7-days, or 3-days, rather than 5-days, depending the program attended. This is only possible at our Resident Training Centre (RTC) and is popular with employers and self-employed participants that simply cannot get the longer time off work to complete the required technical training. Our Classroom Management System (CMS) means each participant has a dedicated Kestrel TSCM ^® workstation equipped with a dedicated Signal Hound BB60C or the next generation SM200 (pending release) Spectrum Analyzer and other shared network based SDR receivers such has the Rohde and Schwarz EM100, Tektronix RSA306B, and ThinkRF WSA-5000 series receivers as available. Professional Development TSCM Group Inc., is a well-established industry leader for all those that simply mimic our ideas and concepts. "Educating the Competition Since 1979" is perhaps an excellent reflection of our industry wide leadership in , "Advancing the Art and Science of Technical Security".

2017 is an excellent year to plan on attending any on our modern, advanced, instructor led training and certification programs, to extend your professional credibility in a rapidly changing technical security industry and more importantly, modern threat model.

We have posted the most recent edition of the Kestrel TSCM ^® | December 2016 | Newsletter on the website at http://www.kestreltscm.com/SISS004.htm for online viewing or download as a PDF.

The December edition of the newsletter provides a focus on the key benefits of enhanced Probability of Detection (POD), based on 24 / 7 sensor based surveillance of the target area power grid as part of the Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) ^TM process.

The power grid is a vast unknown, with many new devices occupying a difficult to characterize signal environment. The validation of the target area electrical power grid has never been this easy! Our easy to configure PLC and BPL Kestrel ^® Spectral Profile Files (SPF) ^TM provide the technical operator with a standards based protocol under the Kestrel Analytics ^TM umbrella. Not sure what you are looking at? No problem! We have our 3-day (resident) Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Operator Certification training just around the corner beginning in January 2017.

"Innovation is simply the Beginning..."

There has been a significant resurgence of Power Line Carrier (PLC) devices as well as a relatively new threat in the way of Broadband Over Power Line (BPL) technology.

Analysis of the power grid is often an overlooked element of many technical inspections due to only limited resources being available, some of which have now been discontinued, and not longer available, for the isolation of potentially dangerous high voltage elements of the power grid, while allowing signal content to safely pass to the spectrum analyzer or oscilloscope for analysis by the technical operator.

The necessity of passing the desired spectrum, while blocking high voltage components, is always a high-risk activity, even for experienced technical operators, and technical operators are strongly encouraged seek the appropriate level of of operational field level training.

Unfortunately, power line analysis is an absolutely necessary requirement at all modern threat levels and it is strongly recommended that the target area power grid be continuously monitored as part of a formal Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) deployment.

The Technical Research and Standards Group (TRSG) have now completed testing on a new product for use with the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software, permitting a never before realized analysis and characterization of the target area power grid, with the objective of detecting PLC and BPL signal events that may be hostile in nature.

Due to a growing demand for new real-world countermeasures technology that must by design, adapt to the modern threat environment, PDTG Inc., is pleased to announce the first add-on hardware module to bring Kestrel TSCM ^®| Power Line Analytics (PLA) ^TM to the Technical Security (TSEC) market.

Utilizing operator defined Spectrum Profile Files (SPF) and a suitable hardware based adapter, the technical operator now has the ability to conduct detailed analytics of the target area power grid, safely, quickly, and easily for AC voltages up to 250 volts, from 10 kHz to 30 MHz, with a balanced 50 Ohm output, and dual operational modes.

Other power line analysis modules are also available to address higher operating voltages and enhanced frequency ranges.

Only minimal familiarization training is required by the technical operator to fully realize the benefits of completing a detailed inspection of the local target area power grid.

Power Line Analysis is fully supported in the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software and can be deployed as a sensor based collection and analysis tool adding a new dimension to the collection strategy.

The ability to deploy a dedicated Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) ^TM receiver, to monitor the target area power grid is now a reality 24 / 7 adding a powerful new analytical capability to the facility technical security posture.

We are pleased to announce that the industry leading Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software will soon have yet another new and exciting capability.

Our Video Demodulation Mode (VDM), currently in the final stages of development and field testing, will be initially available as a Beta drop file shortly, and later included as part of the next scheduled 1.34xx full installer release.

This and other previously announced work is part of our on-going digital demodulation capability, which will also be introduced under the 1.34xx Release Control banner.

The initial underlying code development is now in place and additional refinement work on the existing Oscilloscope Display (OSD) is now in place, within the Demodulation Visualizer control group.



Our recent development work included the ability to | RECORD | and | PLAYBACK | IQ files and the new development of advanced | TRIGGERING | and | GAIN | control for the Oscilloscope Display (OSD), as well as the addition of a new | DELTA "T" | control.

The above image illustrates the | PLAYBACK | of a previously recorded historical IQ file from a typical analog spy cam detected by the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software at a local hotel during runtime collection.

The ability within a modern sweep environment, to demodulate analog video is becoming less relevant, however, many technical operators with limited signal analysis experience have requested this capability.

As many video transmitters are now utilizing complex digital modulation modes, such as FHSS, OFDM, COFDM, etc., some with encryption, the ability to demodulate video at the image level is significantly more difficult or not possible at all.

Therefore, the technical operator must learn to identify possible digital video signals at the analysis level rather than the image level.

The Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software in combination with the 3rd Generation of the Kestrel ^® Prey III | Advanced RF Locator ^TM is ideal as a primary sweep platform, or may be deployed as a secondary walk-about signal locator, giving the technical operator access to a full featured TSCM Spectrum Analyzer and powerful RF Locator that minimizes the requirement for a broadband detector.

Adding the ability to demodulate video signal content provides yet another capability in the hands of an experienced technical operator.

"Innovation is simply the Beginning..."

We are often asked to compare the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software to a wide range of other competitive products.

As I often point out, it is not possible to directly compare such products given the wide variations in pricing, hardware and software.

The Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software stands on its own merits, based on the delivered innovation of industry disruptive technology and a strong track record of commitment to the software development process.

Advanced analytical capability, including IQ recording and Playback are standard included features within the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software.

There are many pros and cons to owning any equipment resource and oftentimes it is advisable to deploy competing technologies for the best overall results.

Therefore, we don't do product comparisons with other TSCM products, and leave the research and decision making up to the end-user, as to what option is best for the intended application.

What we do offer, is unprecedented detailed information as to the key features and exceptional pricing of our software and other related products.

In this light, we offer the following document as a guide to the Key Features of the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software, and allow the end-user to determine where Kestrel ^® fits into the product comparative picture.

Our technical team remains deployed in Europe, and is making excellent use of the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Kestrel Signal Analytics (KSA) ^TM capability to complete complex operator certification training.

Kestrel Signal Analytics (KSA) ^TM is a new deployment methodology developed by Professional Development TSCM Group Inc., and designed to enhance the collection and analysis of complex real-world signal events in near real-time and post review and analysis of historical Kestrel Project Files (KFP).

The ability to deploy, collect, store, and analysis signal events requires not only the ability to review complex Spectra, but also conduct a systematic and methodical review of various elements of the Kestrel Project File (KPF) ^TM, whether manually or automatically captured during deployment.

Our recently added IQ Recording and Playback features and Automatic Export Control (AEC) ^TM are a significant element of understanding the Kestrel Signal Analytics (KSA) ^TM during Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) or Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM).

                How are your signal analysis skills? If your signal analysis IQ is low, put Kestrel IQ to work for you!

It is recommended that all Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software users update to the v1.32-3 installer and the latest drop-in EXE v.33-14 Beta file.

Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software continues to add additional advanced features with every new release, making it the leading Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM), Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) software worldwide, for government, military, security apparatus, law enforcement, corporate security, protective teams, and professional technical security specialists worldwide.

MMAP is an advanced mobile RF collection and surveillance platform, optimized for a wide range of Remote Spectrum Surveillance and Monitoring (RSSM) roles, where fixed spectrum surveillance may not be effective alternative. MMAP is ideal for large government sites with multiple structures and requirements for sustainable public access.

Deployment capability includes Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) assignments, Signals Intelligence (SIGINT) applications, Spectrum Management and Regulatory Compliance, Law Enforcement, EOD, Tactical Deployment, and Technical support of VIP Protective Operations.

MMAP was announced officially at the Canadian Technical Security Conference ^TM (CTSC 2016) this past week and has attracted considerable interest in the covert nature of the MMAP vehicle.

All collection antennas and sensors are covert, and not visible to the casual observer.

The MMAP vehicle is powered by the Kestrel TSCM ^® Professional Software | Signal Intelligence Support System (SISS) ^TM for operator attended and unattended collection and analysis of the ambient RF spectrum environment, currently up to 43 GHz. IF BW configurations up to 160 MHz depending on search receiver configuration are possible.
