Spotlight: Cyber Investigations™

An applicant’s online presence has become increasingly more important to employers over the last decade and even more so in the last year with social media being the easiest and safest way to communicate during the pandemic.

CI’s Cyber Investigation™ is a customizable internet inquiry that can be tailored to your business needs to reveal imperative information regarding an individual’s online life and digital footprint. You may still be wondering, why should I care what my employees post online? Well, there are multiple ways it can have an impact on your business.

A Cyber Investigation™ can uncover:

• How an applicant may or may not follow a company’s IT protocol by providing a track record of responsible use of information systems including data protection.

• Involvement in illegal activity and/or groups with concerns that are adverse to a company’s products and services.

• Offensive postings and activities by a subject that may reflect negatively on the employer and jeopardize its reputation.

A Cyber Investigation™ covers data from current and archived internet sites over a seven plus year period. Client’s who utilize CI’s Cyber Investigation, on average, receive 10% additional adverse information on their applicant’s background investigations.
