An
Individuals watchlist is used to monitor visitor check-ins for
persons of interest listed in a watchlist and then take action as specified in the
watchlist configuration. For example, you might create an individuals watchlist to
automatically block visitors listed in a watchlist and notify watchlist managers. For other
situations, you might only notify watchlist managers. You might also create an individuals
watchlist to notify all watchlist managers when VIPs check-in at your site.
A Companies watchlist is used to monitor visitor
check-ins for companies of interest listed in a watchlist and then take action as
specified in the watchlist configuration. For example, you might create a companies
watchlist to automatically block access for people with a Company
name, company domain, or email address domain that matches specific companies of interest
listed in this watchlist.
