UNIQUE DATASETS

Illicit Network Index +
LocalPEP Check

Evidencity's practiced methodology for unique datasets define the explicit and implicit relationships that big data cannot see.


  • Pre-sanction indicators

    To determine who is the most likely to be sanctioned.

  • Criminal actors and organizations

    Local knowledge of known criminal actors and organizations, their leaders and businesses.

  • Relationships between networks

    The relationships that exist between these two networks, and connections between illicit actors in the political and business world, and criminal underworld.

Illicit Network Index

The Illicit Network Index (INI) identifies and maps relationships between known bad actors and the undiscovered subjects in their networks. It is developed for entire jurisdictions, regions or specific communities
of interest. The INI is updated annually or as often as required.

LocalPEP Check

The LocalPEP Check goes deep into political exposure by focusing on municipal, state and federal public officials, and their first- and second-tier relationships. It is developed for entire jurisdictions, regions or communities of interest, and is updated annually or as often as needed.

  • Municipal-level politicians

    Including their families, political affiliations, known business associates, and connections to state and federal public servants.

  • State-level politicians

    Including their families, political affiliations, known business associates, and connections to municipal and federal public servants.

  • Federal-level politicians
