Employee Background Checks
Enhanced due diligence & background screening
Secure a unique global perspective of an individual’s personal circumstances, including an assessment of the risk the individual poses to your organisation.
Expose current or previous involvement in fraud, money laundering, dishonest conduct, theft of commercial data, financial malpractice, or links to criminal or suspicious activities that may affect the status of current or future interactions.
Recruitment & Human Resources
Human Resources
IYE Global’s proprietary investigation resource, Cobra AI, moves strongly away from traditional employment screening processes, taking a more ‘intelligence’ and ‘investigator-led’ approach, augmenting old due diligence frameworks into a defined, employee-centric risk-focused model.
By conducting extensive first- and third-party risk assessments, Cobra AI will expose an individual’s direct or indirect links to criminal, fraudulent or suspicious activities that may present a risk to an organisation. This level of threat analysis is embedded within all Cobra AI background checks, supported by additional checks that can be tailored to meet specific due diligence requirements.
We prioritise the quality of our information by ensuring that our team of experts thoroughly examines and verifies every piece of data before it is shared with our clients.
Expose Insider Threat
It is not always external factors that can affect the economic status of an organisation – threat can quite easily come from within.
A single insider can steal sensitive data and install malicious software in minutes, while a compromised employee can siphon cash out of your business. Accurately assess risk data relating to internal fraud threats, such as bribery and corruption, theft of personal or commercial data, customer account fraud, and false applications.
Cobra AI can help spot individuals who may have previously carried out unacceptable conduct against another organisation, or who have had a predisposition to crime previously.

Cobra AI’s global database records instances of dishonest conduct by job applicants and employees in the workforce, helping employers and recruiters identify potential threats to their organisation and protect their workforce, shareholders and customers.
Cobra’s ability to link seemingly unconnected people is instrumental to identifying threat. This includes exposing individual’s likely to be considered as weak targets and therefore susceptible to temptation, external influence, or criminal coercement.
High risk employees
Employees working in high threat areas present a consistent risk to the business.
Example roles include

Identify criminal or suspicious activities
It is not uncommon for people to not have a criminal record or to be on a PEP, sanctions, corruption or watch list, have a respectable employment record, clean social media profile and a positive financial history, yet can be directly associated with criminal or suspicious activities.
Cobra AI’s ability to link seemingly unconnected people allows clients to detect and assess risk posed by any identified associations with criminality.
Expose suspicious, concealed or undisclosed risk factors, such as substance abuse, violent behaviour, political, radical or ideological persuasion, or individuals likely to be considered as weak targets and therefore susceptible to temptation, external influence or criminal coercement (a criminal tactic prevalent in data breaches), each of which present a viable threat to an organisation.
Cut through inaccurate or false information
Information has real-life consequences. How we choose to interpret data often determines the decisions we make.
Industry standard tools used to conduct employee background checks access both official (government records) and unofficial data (e.g. social media and dark web data scrapes). Unofficial data is often highly inaccurate and frequently contains misinformation.
80% of unofficial data contains false information and is limited to accessing between 6-8% of overall data.
By combining Cobra AI’s unparalleled data analysis capabilities with IYE’s extensive experience in conducting due diligence investigations, we can typically identify 70% more risk intelligence than our competitors.
The question is, “would you make an informed decision knowing just 8% of the risk, or upon understanding 78% of the facts?”
