ID Theft Protection Services Provided:

1. DETECT POTENTIAL IDENTITY AND FRAUD THREATS

Personally Identifiable Information (PII)

Compromised Credentials monitors for a combination of email address /username /password /security questions located within:

• Hacker account dump sites
• Hacktivist forums
• Data leaks
• Malware logs

Alerts are sent with event details, also listed within resolution console and most often includes source of breach (from where the data was harvested).

High-Risk Transactions monitors a Consumer’s high-risk transactions with more than 300 of the nation’s largest companies to uncover and thwart account takeover attempts. Knowledge-Based Authentication (questions only an individual should know about themselves such as what street they lived on in 2009) used by organizations across industries limits the risk of identity theft or account takeover. Alerts are sent when a series of knowledge-based authentication questions are generated to validate the Consumer’s identity (i.e. when accessing a credit report). Monitored transactions include:

• Credit cards
• Bank accounts
• Brokerage accounts
• Healthcare portals
• Workplace intranets
• Other services (e.g. peer-to-peer fund transfers)

Dark Web Monitoring provides monitoring of underground web pages people can visit without third parties being able to trace the location of the web visitors or the web page publisher. Dark web sites make up about .01% of the Internet and are intentionally hidden or protected by encryption technologies and not accessible via standard web browsers.

Credit Information

Single Bureau Credit Monitoring monitors a Consumer’s TransUnion credit file for changes that could indicate fraud such as new credit inquiries, an address change or new credit account(s) opened in their name. In order to use this service, Consumers must provide some personal information, such as name, address, date of birth, and SSN, and undergo either digital verification via text or knowledge-based authentication. ID Theft Protection sends alert notification emails, such as change of address alerts, anytime potentially unauthorized inquiries or suspicious activities on Consumer’s credit file are detected so they can take immediate action to minimize damage.

Additional Information

Small Business ID Theft Protection upgrades ID Theft Protection identity monitoring services by adding URL and Domain monitoring to the existing list of monitored items. URL and Domain monitoring searches for the Consumer’s business URL and domain (limited to 10 domains) within corporate data breaches, malicious third-party botnets and criminal forums.

2. RECEIVE ALERTS OF SUSPICIOUS ACTIVITY

• Email Addresses
• Debit/Credit Cards
• Loyalty/Affinity Cards
• Bank Account Numbers
• Passport Numbers
• Medical and Vehicle Insurance Cards
• Drivers Licenses
• National Identity Numbers/Social Security Numbers
• New Lines of Credit
• Address Changes

3. RESOLVE IDENTITY THREATS WITH SELF-SERVICE RESOLUTION OR SPECIALIST SUPPORT

Self-Service ID Theft Resolution Kit is a self-service resolution document which informs Consumers of the different forms of ID theft, and how to resolve each situation. Resolution tools in the kit include preventive measures, step-by-step guides and sample letters to be sent to collection agencies.

Access to Resolutions Specialists which assigns a personal case manager to help take care of everything.

Self-Service ID Theft Wizard provides step-by-step advice for many identity theft scenarios that Consumers may face. All ID Theft Protection users have access to the Identity Theft Protection Kit found in the Profile section of their portal, which explains the many forms of identity theft and provides protective measures anyone can take to limit their risk. The kit also contains a Federal Trade Commission sample affidavit form, as well as sample letter templates for filing disputes in cases of identity theft or fraud.

Online Fraud Alerts allow Consumers to place a statement on their credit report that instructs lenders to contact the Consumer before issuing new credit. This makes it more difficult for an identity thief to open new accounts in their name. When Consumers place a fraud alert with one bureau, the other two bureaus are informed, and the alert is then placed on all three bureau files. Fraud alert placement is free, and alerts stay on the Consumer credit files for one year.
