When Smart Sentinel detects a high-severity event — a sanctions match, a CAC deregistration, a TIN deactivation — it doesn’t just alert you. It generates a full investigation report: a structured analysis with timeline, evidence, risk assessment, and recommended actions.

What triggers a report

Investigation reports are automatically generated for:
  • HIGH severity monitoring events
  • Events that trigger a badge revocation
  • Sanctions or PEP matches with high confidence
  • CAC status changes from ACTIVE to INACTIVE/DEREGISTERED
You can also request a report manually from the dashboard for any vendor under monitoring.

Report structure

Every investigation report contains:
SectionContents
SummaryOne-paragraph executive summary of the finding
TimelineChronological sequence of events leading to the finding
EvidenceData from registries, news sources, and internal records
Risk assessmentSeverity analysis with business impact
Recommended actionsConcrete steps to mitigate or resolve
SourcesAll data sources consulted with access timestamps

How they’re generated

Reports are produced by an AI pipeline that:
  1. Pulls the triggering event data from the Sentinel agent
  2. Cross-references with the vendor’s full verification history
  3. Queries additional public sources for corroborating information
  4. Structures findings into the standard report format
  5. Assigns a final severity and recommended actions
Generation takes 1–3 minutes. You receive a notification when it’s ready.

Immutability

Investigation reports are immutable audit records. Once generated, they cannot be edited or deleted. If new information emerges, a new report is generated — the historical record is preserved.
