4 Instant-On Monitoring ID Watchdog pioneered Instant-On Monitoring for employee benefit customers. Other identity theft protection companies wait to receive an enrollment file and then send an to their subscribers asking them to click a link and complete a process before turning on any identity theft monitoring. Typically this results in a significant dropout rate, resulting in less than half of the subscribers actually getting the monitoring they are paying for. ID Watchdog instantly activates all monitoring on the benefit effective date, without any further action required by the subscriber. ID Watchdog s deferred authentication technology waits until a subscriber wants to review an alert before their identity is validated. This means that all subscribers get exactly what they are paying for on day one. Therefore, ID Watchdog s offerings are fully FTC and CFPB compliant. Features supported by Instant-On Monitoring:» Credit Monitoring» Public Records Monitoring» National Change of Address Monitoring» Payday Loan Monitoring» Non-Credit Loan Monitoring» High-Risk Transaction Monitoring» High-Risk Application Monitoring» Cyber Monitoring

5 Benefit Features All ID Watchdog services feature the largest networks possible so that we can provide the broadest coverage and the best protection available at any price. CREDIT PROTECTION SERVICES Credit Monitoring Credit monitoring is the most effective process for identifying thieves creating unauthorized new accounts. ID Watchdog will monitor your employees credit report and alert them when any changes are detected. We also keep a full alert history for as long as the employee maintains their account. Additionally, they will receive a copy of their credit report(s) annually, including three years of payment history and credit score(s). When evaluating tri-bureau vs. single-bureau monitoring options, it is important to understand that a single bureau monitoring solution is a big compromise when it comes to credit monitoring solutions, as it misses between 41% and 47% of new account inquiries. ID Watchdog s monthly credit score tracker allows employees to update and track their TransUnion credit score on a monthly basis.

6 Rapid Credit Alerts Rapid Credit Alerts deliver TransUnion credit alerts within minutes rather than one to two days offered by other credit monitoring and identity theft protection service companies. Keep employees alert and aware of any potentially fraudulent activities faster and earlier with ID Watchdog. Fraud Alerts and Reminders Credit bureau fraud alerts allow individuals to require businesses to contact them directly prior to releasing any credit information. This makes it more difficult for an identity thief to obtain credit in a victim s name. These alerts are typically good for 90 days and are standard operating procedure in the case of a lost or stolen wallet. ID Watchdog will assist employees in placing fraud alerts, and even send reminders prior to an alert expiring. Credit Freeze Assistance ID Watchdog can assist with putting a freeze on an employee s credit report. Credentials are securely stored for easy access. Credit Score Simulator Coming in See page 18.

7 PROACTIVE IDENTITY MONITORING High-Risk Application & Transaction Monitoring ID Watchdog monitors the largest proprietary database of new account application data available. This database contains hundreds of billions of data points in order to detect potentially fraudulent new accounts at the instant an application is applied for:» Checking Accounts» Savings Accounts» Brokerage Accounts» Wireless Accounts» Auto Loans» Home Loans» Utility Accounts» Credit Card Applications» Check Reorders» Retail Charge Accounts» Payday Loans ID Watchdog can detect fraud up to 90 days earlier than traditional credit monitoring services, thanks in part to the wider range of sources available to us. ID Watchdog also monitors and instantly alerts employees about high-risk transactions - transactions that appear to be unusually suspicious, risky, or indicative of potential identity theft. High-risk transactions cover a number of categories, such as: BANKING, FINANCE AND BROKERAGE CREDIT BENEFITS & PAYROLL INSURANCE AND HEALTHCARE Unauthorized Account Access Password Resets Online Payday Loans Call Center Activity Payroll Account Access Online Benefits Account Access Fund Transfers Online Applications Online W2 Access Online Prescription Management and Refills Online Insurance Records Access Online Claims Portal Access New Account Applications Card Activations Address Changes

8 Earlier Detection - Alerts subscribers the moment an application request or fraudulent activity occurs. This is the fastest possible response time, which enables subscribers to take action immediately, often before any damage can be done. Broader Coverage - Casts a broader net for potential fraud than credit monitoring alone. Failed Attempts - Failed transactions will trigger an alert from ID Watchdog, additional precautions and security measures can be put into place before a second attempt occurs. Other programs that do not have this level of monitoring can only react to these events after the fact, when the damage is already done. Public Records Monitoring In order for an identity thief to capitalize on having stolen an identity, he needs to tie it to an address and/ or phone number. Whether the thief is getting a driver s license, applying for new credit, registering a car or registering to vote, they need to provide an address and often a telephone number. This activity shows up as a new public record associated with your employee s identity. If that record shows a new address or phone number, it can be an early indicator of identity theft. ID Watchdog monitors thousands of public records databases through elite industry data providers in order to detect new cases of identity theft. An expansive Public Records data network provides coverage of more than 37 billion Public Records and contributory databases:» 11.6 billion consumer records» 6.5 billion unique name and address combinations, including 30+ years of address history (great for finding preexisting conditions)» 2.7 billion motor vehicle registrations» 2.7 billion property records» 302 million unique businesses» 227 million auto and home claim records; 99% of all U.S. auto claims» 12 million background checks and 3 million drug screen tests each year

9 Data elements included in Public Records Monitoring includes professional and business licenses, pilot licenses, merchant vessels, registrations (DEA, vehicle, concealed weapons, and voter registration), residences, lease history, national property and deeds, Social Security Death Index, Social Security number verifiers, phones, aliases, criminal records, and more. National Change of Address Registry Monitoring By utilizing a USPS National Change of Address form, an identity thief can send new accounts to their own name while using the victim s address. This can result in all of the victim s mail being forwarded, so that the bills don t get paid and any replacement credit cards are also forwarded to the thief. This is why ID Watchdog also constantly monitors the USPS National Change of Address Registry for suspicious activity. Identity Profile Report Rooting Out Pre-Existing Conditions Unlike most identity theft programs that only look forward to detect future identity theft attempts, ID Watchdog also looks back to ensure that subscribers are not already victims. ID Watchdog uses Public Records data to create an Identity Profile Report that can identify any potential pre-existing conditions as far back as 30+ years. ID Watchdog resolves all cases of pre-existing conditions for subscribers at no additional cost.

10 Non-Credit Loan Monitoring ID Watchdog works directly with alternative credit bureaus that service the under-banked market sectors.

They then sell these identities for as little as $25 each, through black-market websites. ID Watchdog scours the dark places of the internet and looks for personal information that is being traded. ID Watchdog s Threat Research team uses sophisticated hardware to deploy complex algorithms across the internet (black-market and hacker sites, command and control networks, forums, chat rooms, and more).

Additionally, subscribers can select an address to continuously monitor, and receive alerts when new offenders move into and out of that neighborhood. We track and report offenders that move from state-to-state, who can be missed in an online search of the state s registry. National Provider Identifier (NPI) Monitoring Physician identity theft is an emerging threat that cost victims an average of $25,000 in legal fees to resolve 8. Identity thieves steal a physician s National Provider Identifier (NPI) numbers and set up a ghost practice. This ghost practice is then used to submit hundreds of thousands of dollars in fraudulent Medicare and Medicaid claims, that can cause huge problems for the victim. ID Watchdog monitors a physician s NPI for signs of a new ghost practice to stop identity thieves before problems arise. ID Watchdog is currently the only vendor in the identity theft protection market to offer NPI Monitoring. ID Watchdog monitors a physician s, pharmacist s, or physical therapist s NPI for signs of a new ghost practice, so we can stop identity thieves before problems arise Survey on Medical Identity Theft by Ponemon Institute, September, 2013 ( Identity-Theft-Report-FINAL.pdf)

ID Watchdog enables subscribers to better protect themselves by opting in or out of the following:» National Do Not Call Registry» Pre-Approved Credit Offers» Junk Mail» Junk Breach Notification ID Watchdog now provides notification of prominent data breaches. We will also be enhancing this feature to provide a streaming feed of reported data breaches in the ID Watchdog dashboard. Exclusive Two-Step Authentication Many companies allow their subscribers to simply log in by inserting their username and password; however, this low level of security makes it easier for thieves to get into accounts and steal highly-sensitive information. ID Watchdog prides itself on going one step further to make sure subscribers and their information are accurate and secure by using a two-step authentication process when logging into and registering their accounts.
