ISTwatch Version 5.0 Released White Plains, NY, November 5, 2008 – Intelligent Search Technology (IST) is pleased to announce
the
newest version of its popular OFAC and PATRIOT Act compliance tool, ISTwatch® Version 5.0.
The
latest edition features more compact libraries, allowing more efficient data processing and
significantly improved update procedures. The Live Update utility enables Windows users to retrieve
the latest sanctioned records within a few minutes, bypassing browser-based authorization required
in earlier versions of the product. Other enhancements include a redesigned installation wizard with
a
fresh new look, and a new command-line batch processor featuring PDF report generation. Additionally,
all UNIX and Linux versions now ship with pre-built shared objects. All programmer interfaces will
remain compatible with ISTwatch v4.0 and prior releases.
ISTwatch utilizes the searching and matching intelligence of IST’s NameSearch® technology to
achieve unparalleled accuracy and speed while overcoming variations due to misspellings, transpositions,
acronyms, nicknames and other problems commonly found in data.
