Welcome to Identity Theft Solutions!
Has your company completed the Identity Theft awareness training as required by the FTC, effective January 1, 2008?
The Federal Trade Commission is requiring U.S. businesses, regardless of size or industry, to protect non-public information. Over 52% of identity theft occurs through the workplace. Identity Theft affects every single one of us, whether we've been a victim or not. In order to recoup the money that U.S. businesses are losing due to Identity Theft, consumers and taxpayers are facing increased fees, interest, taxes, etc.
The Identity Theft Red Flags Rules requires businesses to appoint an Information Security Officer, hold mandatory trainings for all part-time, full-time, temporary, and 1099 employees, and create a "culture of security" with the implemenation of Red Flags Policies and Procedures. In addition, it is a requirement that businesses investigate ALL privacy and security practices of their vendors and service providers to limit affiliated company liability.
