DESCRIPTION:In 2015\, artist Ai Weiwei was bugged in his home\, presumably by governmen
 t actors. This situation raised our awareness on the lack of research in ou
 r community about operating and detecting spying microphones. Our biggest c
 oncern was that most of the knowledge came from fictional movies. Therefore
 \, we performed a deep study on the state-of-the-art of microphone bugs\, t
 heir characteristics\, features and pitfalls. It included real life experim
 ents trying to bug ourselves and trying to detect the hidden mics. Given th
 e lack of open detection tools\, we developed a free software SDR-based pro
 gram\, called Salamandra\, to detect and locate hidden microphones in a roo
 m. After more than 120 experiments we concluded that placing mics correctly
  and listening is not an easy task\, but it has a huge payoff when it works
 . Also\, most mics can be detected easily with the correct tools (with some
  exceptions on GSM mics). In our experiments the average time to locate the
  mics in a room was 15 minutes. Locating mics is the novel feature of Salam
 andra\, which is released to the public with this work. We hope that our st
 udy raises awareness on the possibility of being bugged by a powerful actor
  and the countermeasure tools available for our protection.
