Adverse Media Screening Portal

This paper aims to design and develop a web portal for the purpose of searching for natural and legal persons with an unfavorable reputation through online media sources. The primary objective of this portal is to enable companies and employers to verify potential partners and employees for possible links to criminal activities, such as money laundering, bribery, and fraud. A major challenge of this study involves retrieving and processing only relevant articles related to these crimes and subsequently indexing them to facilitate easy access to the desired information. Furthermore, the study considers the language of the articles, as the developed solution supports multiple European languages.
