# True Continuous Monitoring™

## Monitor users in real-time for arrests, warrants, incarcerations or bookings, new sanctions or money-laundering alerts, suspension, revocations and more.

True Continuous Monitoring™ (TCM) is an automated monitoring solution that enables businesses to proactively manage risk by continuously checking for any criminal activity associated with the user's PII. TCM helps organizations stay ahead by providing real-time alerts on arrests, warrants, incarcerations, bookings, new sanctions, money-laundering alerts, suspensions, revocations, and more.

### Coverage

TCM provides access to essential public records, ensuring businesses have a complete picture of a user’s history. Key coverage statistics include:

- 95%+ Coverage: Authenticate covers more than 95% of the U.S. population, with ongoing expansion.
- 100,000+ New Records Daily: Our databases are updated every 60 seconds.
- 24-Hour Alert Window: Receive alerts within 24 hours of a record becoming public.
- 50-State Sex Offender Data: Comprehensive reporting across all U.S. states.

### How it works

**Step 1: Verify User Identity**

Before enrolling a user in TCM, their identity must be verified using the identity verification process.

**Step 2: Enroll the User**

Once the identity is confirmed:

1. Navigate to the user's profile in the Authenticate portal.
2. Select the **True Continuous Monitoring™ (TCM)** option.
3. Confirm enrollment, and TCM will begin monitoring the user in real time.

Please view our [guide](https://info.authenticate.com/guide-tcm?hsLang=en) for more detailed instructions on enrolling users on TCM. 

**Step 3: Receive Alerts**

If new records or updates appear for an enrolled user, you will be notified via email and webhooks with details on the detected activity.
