While screening systems remain foundational, they frequently generate false positives or overlook indirect connections. OSINT fills these gaps by leveraging publicly available data to:

• Map ownership and control relationships.
• Corroborate identifiers like DOB, addresses, and affiliations.
• Gather defensible evidence for internal review or regulator reporting.

From corporate registries to social networks and leaks databases, OSINT empowers compliance teams to cut through noise, reduce risk, and strengthen investigative accuracy.
