Audit Evidence & Certificates

Preserve what was checked, what was found, and what happened next.

Embargo connects supported screening and monitoring outcomes to timestamped source evidence, integrity checks, certificates, exports, and organisation records so a later reviewer can reconstruct the decision path.

  • Timestamped screening records
  • Source-linked outcomes and integrity checks
  • Certificates and exports where the evidence contract is complete

Evidence before narrative

Authority records and source provenance remain distinguishable from normalized identity, derived analysis, and a customer decision.

Integrity-checked artifacts

Eligible screening records can be sealed and verified before a certificate or export is made available.

Organisation history

Supported bulk screens, re-screens, outcomes, and reviewer evidence remain attached to the organisation workflow.

How it works

A reconstructable compliance record

  1. 01

    Record the screening input

    Preserve the searched name and the organisation context without turning a similar name into a confirmed identity.

  2. 02

    Attach the available authority evidence

    Store the relevant registry publication, source records, match context, and completeness state.

  3. 03

    Keep interpretation separate

    Approved analysis can explain evidence, but it does not create a designation or silently resolve uncertainty.

  4. 04

    Export a supported artifact

    When required evidence is present, provide a certificate or export with timestamps and integrity identifiers.

Important boundary

A certificate records an Embargo screening outcome; it is not legal clearance.

No-match and potential-match outcomes are qualified by the data and identifiers available at the time. Customers remain responsible for identity verification, escalation policy, legal interpretation, and the final business decision.
