Within Visitor Management, an admin can manually assign a visitor to an internal watchlist, which you can learn more about HERE.
Additionally, there is also the ability to integrate with external watchlist databases. So if a visitor signs in and is known by a government agency to be a risk, you can make sure the right people in your organization are being notified.
Visitor Management currently integrates with these external watchlists:
When you are activating the integration, you will be able to choose from one of the 4 colored watchlist groups.
This will determine which group will receive the notification when a flagged visitor signs in.
Learn how to set up these groups HERE.

Setting up the FinScan Integration
This watchlist integration allows you to screen visitors against anti-money laundering (AML) maintained by Finscan.
Setting up Integration Point
This integration allows you to screen visitors against restricted entities lists maintained by Integration Point.
Our Risk Insights watchlist integration uses Thomson Reuters' CLEAR Risk Inform screening tool to check visitors against a comprehensive list of potential offenses. These screenings will automatically take place after a visitor’s first name, last name, and date of birth are collected during one of these three events in the Visitor Management Process:
A visitor signs-in using the Kiosk experience.
A visitor completes the registration portal.
A user fills out their visitor’s name and date of birth when creating an invite within the admin portal.
Each visitor is checked against dozens of crimes, spanning across multiple categories. If they meet your chosen threshold of crimes committed, you can assign a watchlist color depending on if they exceed or are below that threshold.
