Comprehensive Alerts
Addressing threats to your identity as quickly as possible can help you protect your identity — and your assets — before identity thieves can cause lasting damage. To give you the earliest possible notification of fraudulent activity, IdentityHawk® provides the broadest range of immediate risk warnings as well as assistance if your identity is compromised.
E-mail and Text Alerts. Whenever IdentityHawk®'s monitoring service detects a threat to your identity — whether it's compromised data at a bank where you do business or the use of your Social Security number by someone else — you'll receive an immediate alert, via your choice of e-mail or text message. When you log into IdentityHawk®, your dashboard will provide details on the threat and guide you with a list of steps you can take to address it.
Breach Alerts. Hackers are becoming increasingly bold and sophisticated in their attempts to steal data from companies, government agencies, financial institutions, and other organizations, resulting in more than 12 million database records being compromised.* IdentityHawk® informs you automatically whenever a security breach (such as the loss of tapes, discs, or email data) may have exposed your personal information to identity thieves.
Fraud Alerts. If you believe your identity is at risk, IdentityHawk® is ready to help you place a fraud alert on your files at the three credit reporting agencies — TransUnion, Equifax, and Experian. Fraud alerts help prevent identity thieves from opening new lines of credit in your name.
Knowledge is power - especially when it comes to preventing identity theft. IdentityHawk®'s comprehensive alerts will not only help you predict the likelihood of fraudulent activity (and therefore stay one step ahead of identity thieves); it will also help you take the necessary steps to prevent identity theft from happening to you.
