1. Own Your Identity

2. The Problem: Identity Theft
Identity theft was the number one consumer complaint to the Federal Trade commission last year In 2014 alone, more than 1 Billion personal records were leaked. Financial losses totaled more than $50 Billion 1 . Once your information is out there, its difficult to regain control.
There are two primary forms of identity theft:
Personal Identity Theft
SSN’s, Passports, Computer User IDs
Financial Instrument Theft
Cards, Checks, Electronic Transfers

3. Current Providers: After-the-fact Identification
Credit monitoring services do not protect consumers from identity theft. They only notify impacted individuals after their information has been compromised. Models that scan activity and look for anomalies in transaction requests do hinder malicious activity, but they can create friction for consumers in the process. Those who have had their cards and accounts locked incorrectly express significant frustration with the process. Most systematic indicators and ‘red flags’ are triggered at the end of transaction processes generating millions in fees and losses for processors and banks each year.

4. The Problem: Identity Theft
The predominant targets for identity theft focus on easily-accessible identifiers including card numbers, bank account details and personally identifiable data elements. All processes are at risk.
Card Transactions
Card Present transactions are more mainstream but still do not allow the merchant to confirm your identity.
CNP transactions continue to grow reducing the ability to prohibit identity theft through card design.
Systematic methods require massive data processing and storage expenses. And they block less than 50% of fraudulent activity.
Back-Office Operations
Industry standard procedures enforce dual validation. However, back office personnel are still accountable for final approval / release of funds allowing for misuse of personal information.
In addition, processes are often cumbersome for both the front and back office due to the required validations.
Electronic Fund Transfer
The fastest growing segment of the payments space is Electronic Funds Transfer.
Millennials are more comfortable using ETF and Cards than paying in cash or check.
This opens more transaction channels to the risk of identity theft.
Personal Account Details
Once compromised, data can be leveraged again and again. New accounts can be created, loans can be secured and monies can be transferred away.
And, this data can now be used in other areas of a person’s life like health and tax records.
Current processes fail to verify a persons identity prior to authorizing transactions.
