What is a Global Terrorist Watch List search?
This search provides compliance with the US Patriot Act. It consists of a name check against 45+ worldwide databases of known terrorists, fugitives, individuals, organizations, and companies considered to be a threat to global and national security. This search provides assurance that a potential hire has no known history of activities and thus is able to be legally employed. The listings are updated daily. In addition, the Patriot Act requires the Departments of Justice and Transportation to certify that all drivers with commercial driver licenses hauling hazardous materials be certified as a “non-security” risk. This search can be utilized as a preliminary check against Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC) prior to submitting a formal request through the FBI.
