For security & risk teams
Know the risk before you give access.
The people you give access to sensitive information, assets and responsibilities can represent a significant organisational risk — whether they are employees, contractors or external partners. Aequivalent helps security, risk and compliance teams identify potential risks and verify critical information through structured background screening, documented processes and secure Swiss-based technology.

The risks that security & risk
teams face every day
When the stakes are high, reliable information is essential to assess exposure
and know who you can trust.
Put due diligence into practice
from day one
Apply a consistent, risk-based screening process across employees, contractors and external partners, from defining the right level of due diligence to reviewing findings and maintaining a documented record.
- 1Define your risk framework
Set the appropriate level of screening based on the role, responsibilities, level of access and risk profile — from essential checks to enhanced due diligence. - 2Select and initiate the right checks
Run standard screening programmes, select individual checks or build a tailored combination with our Programme Builder. Aequivalent manages the full screening process, obtains the consent from people being screened and collects the necessary information. - 3Verify critical information
Checks are performed against relevant original sources, including former employers, educational institutions, official registers and authorities. - 4Review flagged results and maintain a clear record
Track screening progress in real time and review available findings. Documented results provide a clear basis for risk assessment and support audit-ready due diligence.

Essential checks for security professionals
Choose the checks that match the risk profile of each role, from identity and criminal records to conflicts of interest.
Go deeper where access, responsibility or exposure demands it.
