Why background checks?

A background check can be valuable in many situations as it establishes a strong foundation of trust through careful preliminary verification. Especially due to the following aspects, an integrity check by a screening partner such as Validato can be almost indispensable:

Icon

Human Risk Management

Background checks are essential for minimizing risks such as fraud, industrial espionage, internal security threats, and conflicts of interest. They ensure that employees in sensitive positions or in public roles are trustworthy and qualified, thereby protecting the security and reputation of the company.

Icon

Regulatory Compliance

Comprehensive background checks are crucial to meeting the strict requirements of regulatory authorities. They help to comply with legal requirements, strengthen the confidence of regulatory authorities and reduce legal risks.

Icon

ISO Compliance

Adhering to ISO standards, such as ISO 27001, requires a thorough review of personnel. Background checks ensure that all employees meet high security and data protection requirements, which is essential for certification and customer trust.

Use cases in the area of human risk management

Validato supports companies in minimising human risks through customised background checks. Although every company has different risk parameters, here are a few use cases:

Highly qualified positions

Minimisation of risks due to false information in the CV

Our service provides companies with protection against false resumes. We thoroughly verify educational qualifications, work experience, and references to ensure that all information is accurate.

Security personnel

Recognising potential risks from untrustworthy personnel

Our detailed integrity checks and regular monitoring help you to identify potentially high-risk employees. This helps you to recognise risks in security or critical positions at an early stage and take appropriate measures.

Employment in critical infrastructure

Ensuring integrity and preventing sabotage

A complete review of training and employment histories ensures that employees have the necessary experience in the relevant industry sector. This minimises the risk of people being deliberately placed in the company for malicious purposes.

Publicly exposed persons

Early identification of reputational risks

We check the public presence of both future and current employees in the press, social media and publicly accessible sources. This helps to identify potentially problematic connections or negative media attention and thus minimise potential reputational risks.

Blackmailable internal or external employees

Avoidance of security risks and economic espionage

Our service helps to minimise human risks associated with internal, external and temporary workers. We review CVs for potential gaps, identify integrity issues and investigate financial exposures that could make employees vulnerable to industrial espionage or blackmail.
