It was surveillance countermeasures, they also hook up a gadget to make the windows vibrate so that a laser pointed at the glass can not pick up what is being said. They do the same thing to parts of embassies and other Govt buildings.

They also do things like pump music/white noise in voids in walls. 

There are guys that do nothing but try to come up with ways to hear conversations( and ways to beat it)   

Sounds like a fun job actually.

Actually, the amateurs target those guys. The pros? They target the janitors and secretaries and maids. They see everything, hear everything, and no one thinks they matter. Until that six figure check with a green card shows up.

That doesn't work against Russia since they don't hire foreign nationals.
Those chores are handled by spouses or Russians imported for the job who are never allowed to leave the compound.
