With PYTHIA, all business partners (companies and their contact persons) as well as the employees of your company can be compared with the sanctions lists published by the EU, UK, CH, USA and UN. PYTHIA can be used very conveniently in a variety of ways:
- Use in the classix.cloud
- Mass upload of business partner and employee data to a separate database (manually or via API)
- Mass synchronisation of the stored or sent partner data with the sanctions lists (manually or via API)
- Individual query of entered/sent company/person data in the sanctions lists (manually or via API).
- Manual updating of white and black lists in PYTHIA.
- The PYTHIA API can be easily integrated into your applications.
- Sanctions lists are automatically kept up to date.
- Use on premise
- Import of business partner and employee data into a separate database (selection of a file manually or via periodically called utility programme)
- Mass comparison of the stored partner data with the sanctions lists (manually or via periodically called up utility programme).
- Individual query in the sanctions lists (manual entry or automated via periodically called utility programme for reading a file from a directory (file sniffer)).
- Sanction lists can be kept up to date manually or by periodically called up utility programme.
If matches are found during the queries (matching), these are/can be logged, the matches are stored in a list of all matches and each match can be moved to a blacklist or a whitelist after manual checking. Persons, companies or one-time addresses that are moved to a blacklist can be automatically blocked in the host system for any business use.
Each logged match should be processed at the end so that all matches are listed either in the blacklist or whitelist. Hits already known from the whitelist are only automatically moved back to a checklist to be checked if the data for a hit has changed in the sanctions lists.
To obtain an initial overview, you can carry out a mass comparison without a log.
Sanctions monitor
The sanctions list monitor has been directly integrated into the main window. This gives you direct access to current hits and allows you to manage your lists (black/white/check).
In the lower area, companies and persons can be imported manually and compared with existing ones.
This import updates existing entries and adds new entries. After the import, you can list all entries that were not part of the last import in order to set them to invalid, for example, via "Menu to app".
You can also compare your imported business partners with the sanctions lists or call up the sanctions list search.
Sanctions lists
The most current status of the published sanctions lists is imported into the PYTHIA anti-terror database on a daily basis. Each import is logged according to the extent of the changes (new, dropped, changed).
All blocked companies and/or persons imported from the sanctions lists into the PYTHIA database can either be listed according to specific search criteria or specific companies and/or persons can be searched for.
Comparison
MS Outlook contacts or the personal and company data of the host or ERP system are automatically compared with the data of the PYTHIA anti-terror database. Each hit is reported and can be logged.
Blacklists and whitelists are used to ensure proper and efficient screening of suspicious persons and companies.
Protocols
All automatically generated protocols for search, comparison or import are securely stored in the PYTHIA database and can be viewed at any time. You thus achieve a very high level of legal certainty.
