World-Check is the most comprehensive and highly-structured intelligence database service available. Recognised as an industry pioneer, World-Check was originally created to meet the demands and requirements of the Swiss banking community to reduce their reputational and financial risk. Just six years later it is being used by more than 2000 financial institutions and government agencies worldwide.
 
World-Check consolidates and organises unstructured information from hundreds of thousands of sources into a database of highly-structured profiles on people and entities known to be of high or heightened risk, such as terrorists, fraudsters, money launderers, Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs), perpetrators of organised crime, narcotics traffickers, arms dealers and sanctioned entities amongst many other categories. World-Check offers its database as a Data-File (downloadable flat-file) for the automated screening of an entire customer base, as well as through a simple online look-up for quick customer screening.
 
World-Check has earned a reputation for being up to 2 years ahead of major international sanction lists in identifying those of a truly high risk. A 97% client renewal rate year on year reflects the trust and confidence clients have in World-Check which is now established as the benchmark in over 120 countries. World-Check’s client-base is made up from a diverse mix of industries:- financial institutions, financial services companies, insurance, accounting, legal firms, government, regulatory and enforcement, transport security, telecommunications etc. Within the banking industry alone, currently 18 of the top 20 European banks, 12 of the top Middle East banks and 46 of the top 50 banks in the world are World-Check customers.
 
As the world becomes a smaller place and crime becomes more international, the provision of highly structured open source intelligence is of key importance if we are to protect ourselves from the risk of terrorist financing, money laundering, corruption and organised crime in general.

Approved to BS EN9001: 2000 by NSI, Esoteric Ltd is the leading provider of specialist sweeping and covert investigation services.

Many organisations face increasing threats from terrorism, crime, espionage, single-issue pressure groups and improper or corrupt behaviour by staff.  The single greatest asset held by most organisations is information and with this in mind a growing number of organisations take proactive action to protect their information and so deter criminals before damage can be done.  We specialise in some of the “esoteric” methods of achieving this through one or a combination of the following ways:

Technical Surveillance Countermeasures (TSCM) – This survey is designed to detect, identify and locate illicit devices in offices, meeting rooms, telephones, cars and key executive homes etc as well as identify how your organisation may be losing information. We also provide E-Room, 24-hour online protection of key rooms / offices. The measures proactively defeat attempts to conduct eavesdropping or in response to a suspicion.

Covert Surveillance – This involves gaining intelligence and evidence by either technical or conventional methods and reporting activities of individuals or groups as a proactive measure or where suspicion already exists. Our services assist clients to deal with issues such as competitive intelligence, espionage, theft, fraud, copyright, counterfeiting and employment.

Bespoke Covert Investigations – Including the deployment of undercover operatives.

Hostile Activity Detection and Response – looking for and deterring criminal activity.

Critical Information Protection and Detection Products  - including mobile phone detection.

F-Secure is headquartered in Finland, with offices in USA, France, Germany, Italy, Sweden, Japan and the UK. Customers in the UK include Barclays Bank Plc, Lloyds TSB Plc, Tesco, Shell and numerous educational and public sector organisations.

Recent trends have shown a sharp increase in e-crime being committed by international crime syndicates for the purposes of financial gain. Anti-virus research has become a fight against e-criminals and internet security specialists, including F-Secure, work closely with the police and other authorities to tackle the growing problem.

One major challenge facing banks and other financial organisations is the need to ensure customers using online banking are fully secured. While the bank may have its own house in order, if a customer's PC becomes infected with viruses, transactions may not be secure. Responsible organisations, such as Barclays Bank, are working with F-Secure to offer their customers the best in up-to-date internet protection. Customers who bank online are offered information on internet security, tips on banking safely on the Internet and the opportunity to buy F-Secure's software at a discounted rate.
