Sanctions exposure analysis

Applied sanctions
graph forensics.

Identify direct and multi-hop proximity to sanctioned and high-risk clusters

Direct interaction with sanctioned entities is an obvious risk, but indirect exposure through mixers, shadow services, and multi-hop paths is where the true compliance danger lies.

Workflow

Sanctions exposure forensics

Sanctions exposure analysis

Target Screening

Initial direct screening against global sanctions watchlists (OFAC, EU, UN, etc.).

Recursive Hop Analysis

Expanding the search to identify indirect exposure 2-5 hops away from the source.

Risk Attribution

Tagging indirect counterparties as known high-risk zones, such as illicit mixers or shadow VASPs.

Exposure Audit-Log

Generating a detailed evidence trail showing the exact path of capital between entities.

How it works

Applied Sanctions Graph Forensics

We perform a graph-based propagation analysis, tracing funds multiple hops away from known sanctioned clusters. This reveals the "gravity" of exposure that simple flat-file screenings miss.

GRAVITY_ANALYSIS

Proprietary exposure modeling that identifies "financial proximity" to sanctions, even through obfuscation.

MIXER_DE_STRATIFICATION

Algorithms designed to track capital movement through standardized mixer outputs and temporal alignment.

HOPS_v5_PROPAGATION

Multi-hop tracing designed to maintain accuracy and low false-positives across many hops.
