Validato AG is a leading company in the field of Human Risk Management and Background Screening, headquartered in Switzerland. It provides companies worldwide with fast, secure, and ISO-certified integrity checks, carried out both before and during the employment of staff and partners. With a clear focus on data protection and compliance, Validato helps companies build trustworthy relationships and minimize risks.
Validato enables companies to comprehensively verify the integrity of their candidates, both automatically and manually, before hiring. With over 16 individually selectable screening options that can be conducted at varying depths depending on needs, companies receive tailored pre-employment checks. These cover aspects such as identity verification, educational credentials, professional qualifications, and previous employment and residence history.
Validato's Human Risk Management helps companies precisely and compliantly manage people-related risks during the employment relationship. Regular rescreenings and continuous monitoring identify potential risks and conflicts of interest early and address them appropriately. This fosters a culture of responsibility and strengthens trust within the company.
Validato's solutions can be seamlessly integrated into existing business processes. Through self-service portals, API interfaces, and single sign-on, the screening process is automated and efficient. HR and compliance teams can initiate checks directly from their usual systems and retrieve results in real time. This reduces administrative workload, provides transparency through complete audit trails, and simplifies regulatory compliance.
Validato is an ISO 27001-certified company and therefore maintains a comprehensive information security management system. In addition, Validato collaborates closely with various security providers and research institutions to ensure the highest security standards and compliance with national, European, and international data protection regulations, including the EU's General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Its server infrastructure is located in Zurich, providing added security and trust for companies with strict data protection requirements.
Thorough background checks are a key tool for detecting threats from internal and external actors early. Companies using Validato minimize the risk of fraud, corruption, economic espionage, or unauthorized access to sensitive systems. In security-critical areas such as finance, government contracts, or cooperation with military partners, a high level of integrity is indispensable. Validato ensures that only trustworthy individuals and organizations are admitted to key positions or business-relevant networks.
Validato combines automated screening procedures with in-depth manual checks to provide companies with a clearly structured process. Automation significantly reduces processing times, allowing HR and compliance departments to focus on selecting the most suitable candidates or partners. This not only reduces the risk of bad hires but also lowers follow-up costs associated with training, incidents, or legal disputes. At the same time, the speed of filling security-relevant positions increases, offering a competitive advantage in markets where qualified personnel are scarce.
A demonstrably thorough and standardized background check process enhances a company's reputation. Business partners and clients recognize that security and compliance are not just theoretical but actively enforced. This builds trust and facilitates cooperation with regulated industries or international institutions that require strict security standards. For employees, it also creates added value: they work in an environment based on fairness, transparency, and accountability. These factors actively contribute to employee retention and positive employer branding.
Another common issue is neglecting regular rescreenings: a one-time check at hiring is insufficient to identify risks throughout employment. By consistently applying comprehensive, automated, and continuous checks, companies can avoid these mistakes and ensure the integrity of their workforce and the security of their business partners.

Validato AG offers companies a comprehensive solution in Human Risk Management and Background Screening. With services tailored to the specific needs of each company, Validato helps minimize risks, increase efficiency, and strengthen trust in business partners. By adhering to the highest security standards and data protection requirements, Validato ensures a reliable and trustworthy partnership for companies worldwide.
CypSec itself uses Validato in highly sensitive areas, particularly where cooperation in military or critical infrastructure contexts takes place. Here, robust background checks are a prerequisite for ensuring the integrity of partners and employees. The results flow directly into CypSec's governance and compliance processes and form an essential basis for securing its own security architecture consistently.
In addition, CypSec and Validato actively collaborate on operational topics. This includes linking background screening with threat intelligence analyses, enabling risks to be assessed not only statically but also dynamically in the context of current threat landscapes. This creates continuous information exchange that goes beyond compliance and provides companies with real added value in preventive security.
