Illicit Network Intelligence

Future risk revealed today


Early warning intelligence on criminal networks and forced labor operations. Identify pre-sanctioned entities, map illicit networks, and assess forced labor exposure before regulatory action. Built through source-level research in 80+ jurisdictions using Country Resource Libraries that access local, in-language sources unavailable to conventional screening.

Access Data Catalogue

Traditional screening only catches yesterday's risks.

We build unique datasets from an initial list of subjects provided by the customer or by our team, featuring:

Pre-Sanctioned Intelligence

Entities and individuals connected to sanctioned subjects before formal designation. Includes front companies, shell corporations, family members, and business partners operating within sanctioned networks.

Criminal Network Intelligence

Comprehensive mapping of transnational criminal organizations: leadership hierarchies, operational networks, front companies, financial facilitators, enforcement groups. Coverage includes drug trafficking organizations, transnational gangs (MS-13, Barrio 18, Tren de Aragua), organized crime families, and cyber crime groups.

Political Risk & Facilitation Intelligence

Corrupt officials, political fixers, influence peddlers, and regulatory manipulators who enable illicit activities. Government officials with documented corruption involvement, brokers of illicit deals, and power brokers controlling market access.

Forced Labor Intelligence

Operations using forced labor in mining, agriculture, manufacturing, and extraction. Sex trafficking networks, migrant exploitation schemes, and supply chain vulnerability across critical materials and industries.

Safe Harbor Intelligence

Low-risk entities assessed and cleared for business relationships. Confidence scoring on safety assessments with context on why subjects are considered low-risk.
