Recording laws in Texas: what you need to know.
Texas is generally treated as a one-party consent state for recording conversations - and that distinction matters if you suspect you are being recorded or watched.
Phone & electronic - one-party
For calls and electronic communications, a participant may generally record. Secretly intercepting a conversation you are not part of can create criminal exposure.In-person - participant consent
For in-person conversations, Texas law generally focuses on whether a party to the communication consents; hidden devices used by outsiders can still be unlawful surveillance.Unlawful eavesdropping or surveillance can carry criminal penalties and civil consequences. If you suspect a hidden device is present, a professional sweep can confirm the threat and document the evidence.
Entangling eavesdropping attacks & the quantum surveillance threat.
Can hackers secretly spy on quantum communication without being detected? Bugged.com and Michael Peros are pioneering Cyberbugged TSCM - the next generation of technical surveillance countermeasures designed for the quantum era.
We are at the forefront of detecting and defending against entangling eavesdropping attacks, AI-powered surveillance, and advanced threats targeting quantum communication protocols such as BB84.

What people are saying
Three decades of high-stakes cases — in the words of the people we protected.
Thanks, Michael, for discovering an illegal hook-switch bypass in our conference room — a bug that cost us billions. Even when the company couldn't be saved, it kept Lorenzo out of the airline industry for good.
Peros uncovered over 65,000 illegal intercepts. That evidence led to the case being thrown out — and earned praise from the U.S. Inspector General's Chief Investigator.
Michael Peros, our White Knight, saved us from malicious prosecution when we were wrongly charged with our child's murder. Exposing the illegal microphone hidden in our bedroom was key to prevailing — all charges dropped.
Michael saved me $3M in legal fees and protected 12 other defendants. He uncovered illegal wiretaps and a hidden “Brady Bug” in my office — what's considered the largest illegal wiretapping case in U.S. history.
Michael found a TK-400 Japanese audio bug hidden behind my desk. He saved my billion-dollar company — the greatest TSCM counter-surveillance engineer there is.
Thank you, Michael Peros, for saving my professional horse track from financial disaster by exposing 13 illegal wiretaps on the phones.

Texas-specific sweeps account for local threats, regionally common devices, and state privacy concerns. We also understand how to work discreetly within Texas office cultures, residential neighborhoods, oilfield sites, and ranch properties.
Texas is a one-party consent state for audio recording, meaning only one participant in a conversation must consent. However, installing hidden cameras or listening devices in private spaces like bathrooms, bedrooms, or offices without any party's knowledge is illegal under Texas law, which is exactly the kind of device our sweeps are designed to find.
Yes. Given the amount of highway driving across Texas, vehicle sweeps are common. We inspect trucks, personal vehicles, RVs, and company fleet vehicles for GPS trackers, hidden audio devices, and unauthorized transmitters.
