Know Your Employee Candidate document verification system
Verify a candidate's diploma, ID, criminal record and social security documents at the source. The consent flow is built around Turkey's data-protection law (KVKK); the report is sealed and can be checked on a public verification page.
Checks never run without candidate consent · no e-Devlet password required.▶See the 60-second verification process
The résumé and reality don't always line up
Inconsistency isn't always intentional — but every unexplained inconsistency is a question. Six seemingly small discrepancies can turn into a major cost in a key role.
Application documents that can't be verified
Identity, diploma or certificate can't be confirmed at the source.
Misleading references
The person or organisation named doesn't reflect reality.
Employment history inconsistencies
Title, role or dates don't match the employer's own records.
Other 3 inconsistency types
Concealed reasons for leaving
The circumstances of departure are incomplete or misrepresented.
Overstated authority and responsibilities
The declared scope of the role doesn't match reality.
Open-source risk indicators
Digital findings that could be critical to corporate reputation.
Most of these six indicators close before the offer letter once the document is checked at its source. How Know Your Employee works →
Verification is the first checkpoint against employee-driven risk
Inconsistency is the norm, not the exception. Most employers encountered at least one inconsistency in candidate screening in the past year — most often in employment history, education and undisclosed criminal records. The data:
75%+
Share of employers who found at least one inconsistency in candidate screening in the last 12 months.
~40%
Employers who encounter at least one inconsistency in roughly every 20 candidates on average.
47%
Education records in EMEA — one of the areas where inconsistencies appear most often.
13%
Employers who report finding an inconsistency in one of every five candidates.
Source: HireRight 2025 Global Benchmark Report, June 2025. The survey ran 11 February – 9 March 2025; 1,114 responses from HR, risk and talent-acquisition professionals across North America, EMEA and APAC. The 47% figure is the EMEA breakout only.
A bad hire costs more than verification does.
A bad hire brings re-hiring, retraining and fraud risk together; every extra month in a key role adds to that cost. The first step isn't an expensive mistake — it's a verification completed in 1–7 business days before hiring. For claims that surface after hiring, the second checkpoint: Fraud Investigation →

How are documents verified?
HR opens the request; the candidate uploads documents from their own account; the system checks each document against its primary source. Any check the system can't be certain about is automatically routed to a specialist.

Archived Criminal Record Certificate
UploadedPopulation Registry Extract
UploadedResidence History Record

PendingFindeks Risk Report
PendingWhy does the candidate submit it themselves?
Accessing someone’s official records on their behalf demands far greater authority than the verification itself. When the candidate retrieves the document from their own account, data stays minimal and the process rests on solid ground.
Why isn't scanning the barcode enough?
A valid barcode isn’t enough: the most common form of fraud is a genuine document belonging to someone else. The system checks the document against its source and compares the name and ID number with the application.

What happens if something's off?
If the document isn't found at the source
If the barcode isn’t registered with the authority, the report says so plainly: the document may be fraudulent or the number misread. The system doesn’t rule — it reports what it found.
If the document belongs to someone else
If the barcode is valid but the identity doesn’t match the candidate, a mismatch flag is raised — a genuine document, someone else’s.
In both cases the check is routed automatically to a Prosecure operator; a specialist reviews the document manually and closes it with their own record.
Where does responsibility sit?
Roles are the part of this process most often misunderstood. Here is how it actually works, and how it's written into the contract.
Data controller
You're the party that makes the hiring decision and determines the purpose of processing the data. The disclosure obligation and the choice of retention period are yours.
Data processor
We process data only on your instructions and on your behalf. We cannot use it for our own purposes or transfer it to another party.
Safeguards built into the system
Explicit consent
No verification runs without the candidate's consent.
Separate explicit consent
Special-category data, such as criminal records, requires its own separate consent.
No e-Devlet password
The candidate downloads the document from their own account and submits it themselves.
Other 3 principles
Authorised access
Only the authorised users who opened the request can see the results.
Audit trail
Who did what, and when, is logged.
Retention and deletion
Documents are destroyed once the set retention period ends.
In the demo call, we also share disclosure-notice and data-processing-addendum templates for your own KVKK documentation.
Which documents we verify
You choose the checks you want for each request. Some run fully automatically; others are inherently specialist work carried out by a Prosecure operator.

The unit price per credit is defined in your contract. Key-role investigations aren't part of this table; their scope is built around the role.
Pay for what you use
No fixed package or monthly commitment; cost is based only on the checks you select for that request.
Reserved first, finalised after
When a request is opened, the relevant amount is reserved from your balance; it's finalised once the check completes. Your remaining balance is always visible in the panel.
Inconclusive checks are refunded
You don't pay for a check that couldn't be completed due to a technical obstacle, or that's cancelled. A document turning out to be fraudulent, on the other hand, is a result.

Verification results, in a single report
The report doesn't hand down a score or a verdict; it lays out each check's source, result and verification code side by side. You make the decision.
What's in the report
- Report header — requesting organisation, masked candidate details, date and number of checks
- Proof of consent — how consent was obtained and with what identity assurance
- Every check, individually — check, source, result, verification code, verified by, and date
- Overall result and QR code — how many checks were verified; a QR code that lets anyone check the report on the public page
Sample report — Know Your Employee panel output; organisation and candidate details are illustrative.
The report is sealed — anyone can verify it
Anyone holding the report can check on a public page that it was issued by Prosecure. The page only confirms the report's authenticity — it doesn't display candidate details.
Enter the report code.
Try it: sample code PRS-2026-1640F7 — type a different code and the system tells them apart.
Report is valid
Issued by Prosecure.
No record found
No report has been issued with this code.
Illustrative demo. Report verification runs live once the Know Your Employee panel is connected.

The QR code on the report also leads here. A report whose content is altered afterwards will show as invalid on this page — it grounds the document's authenticity in an independent record, not your word.
Key Personnel Background Investigations
General managers, signatories, partners or key personnel ahead of an investment — here the risk isn’t a date error on a résumé, it’s a history that never made it onto any document. The product verifies documents; this investigation looks for what was never declared and is led end-to-end by a specialist.
Employment-history depth, commercial affiliations, open-source and reputation findings, global risk screening. Scope is set by the role; delivery takes one to seven business days.

The party doing the verifying should be accountable too
We are the founding firm that turned background verification into an independent, defined service in Türkiye. Prosecure isn’t a software company; it comes from a background in corporate investigations and risk advisory. Know Your Employee is the end-to-end solution built on that experience.
A system that can say "I'm not sure"
When the system hesitates, the case is automatically routed to a specialist; the result is never left to a guess.
Consent declaration built into the system
The consent declaration isn't a form signed off to the side — it's the operating condition of the process. No consent, no check; withdraw it, and the check stops.
A checkable output
The report is sealed and publicly verifiable. You don't have to trust us to trust the result.
International partnerships
For cross-border history, we rely on reciprocal partnerships with foreign verification providers and HR technology companies — using their network for candidates based abroad.
Every report is completed under the founder's oversight. Meet the founder →
Verification is the first step; personnel risk management doesn't end here
Pre-hire document verification is the starting point. It continues with expert-led investigation for key appointments, independent review when a claim surfaces after hiring, and third-party research for business partners.
