ADS Security Partners with IdentaSafe to Offer Identity Theft Protection

10/03/2011

Nashville, TN – ADS Security (ADS) announced today that they have partnered with IdentaSafe to add Identity Theft Protection to their growing list of services.  Founded in 2004, well before identity theft became a mainstream concern, IdentaSafe is one of the fastest growing identity theft protection providers in the United States.

Many times when people think of theft, they think of material assets.  However, identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the U.S. today, with an average of $4,841 in damages per victim.1  In fact, last year over 11 million Americans were victims of identity theft; that translates into a new victim almost every 3 seconds.

“ADS recognizes the growing threat of identity theft, so we wanted to offer this product as a complement to our existing security services,” said Tom Szell, VP of ADS Security.  “We selected IdentaSafe because they have developed a unique 360-degree approach to identity theft protection that provides customers with protection, detection and correction.”

Early detection is essential in preventing or minimizing the damage from identity theft.  IdentaSafe leverages the nation's largest identity theft database, looking at 650 billion data points every hour, to detect fraud within seconds of occurrence and block transactions before real damage is done.

In the event identity theft does occur, IdentaSafe works with customers to restore their identity to a pre-theft status. Additionally, customers are protected by an actual insurance policy that is paid directly to them that covers lost wages and out-of-pocket expenses that result from identity theft, a feature not offered by LifeLock®, a leading competitor.2
