MK Data Services

MK Data Services today announced version 3.0 of its Web Service Offering. This version of the web service takes advantage of MK Data's Weak Aliases Screening Protection (WASP) and is compatible with all other business software, like those offered by Microsoft or Salesforce.

MK Data announced its Weak Aliases Screening Protection (WASP) assists customers in eliminating troublesome records from the screening equation. Earlier in the year, OFAC announced guidelines on expectations concerning SDN "Weak" aliases.

"In addition to subscribing to data listings, Citrix also subscribes to MK Data's Web Services for screening new online records," said Michael Martin, Global Trade Compliance Coordinator, Citrix. "We found many portal compliance needs were best met by MK Data's Web Services."
