Daily Updates Ensure Real Time Export Compliance

“Descartes Denied Party Screening caught several bad actors in our customer base and shut them down. The best part is that they are on a Dynamic Screening List that runs against government databases nightly and immediately notifies us of changes. We caught customers that were fine one day but flagged as bad actors the next day.”
