Abstract

The disclosed computer-implemented method for protecting users may include (i) detecting, by a sensor component, an electromagnetic signal radiating from an eavesdropping device, (ii) receiving, by a mobile computing device, information identifying the electromagnetic signal, and (iii) displaying, by the mobile computing device, an augmented reality display that overlays a visual indication of a location of the eavesdropping device on an image captured by a camera of the mobile computing device to enable a user to locate the eavesdropping device. Various other methods, systems, and computer-readable media are also disclosed.
