An Interview with Brenda Wall - Pre-Paid Legal Services
"How You Should Safeguard Your Identity"
Identity Theft is the fastest growing crime in America. 215 million Americans identities have been reported lost or stolen since 2005. Laws have been passed against businesses that hold the business owner responsible for damages and costs. Is your business protected? Are you in compliance?
A recent news publication notes that identity theft will increase 20 times in the next 20 months. Similar to a thief breaking into your home, being a victim of identity theft is devastating. Although nothing may appear to be missing, your rights have been violated.
Identity theft can unravel a person's life. The process of restoring your name can be overwhelming and costly. It could take years and thousands of dollars, and one can never be sure if it will strike again or if the matter has been completely taken care of. Everyone should learn how to avoid identity theft and have a plan if the devastating crime does occur.
Brenda Wall, a Certified Identity Theft Risk Management Specialist, works with one of the largest risk management consultant firms in the world. The identity theft service they offer provides continuous, 24-hour monitoring of your identity, as well as true restoration if it does happen.
Brenda also provides special services to business owners regarding current laws for employers. "I offer business owners an Affirmative Defense Response System at no charge to the business," Brenda says. "Our company gives employers information for setting up the necessary meetings. We've done extensive work to put together a policy for every business, whether it is large or small. We have a checklist for these businesses, and we offer third party documentation to businesses to show the efforts being made to be in compliance. At no cost to the company, we train employees on what identity theft really is. While offered to businesses at no charge, the Affirmative Response Defense System effectively addresses each of the four things the government requires. The system offers a comprehensive solution to help business owners protect their assets."
Regardless of the size of your business, employers are responsible for protecting the personal data in their company's possession. An organization's best defense is a proactive, comprehensive and consistent position on privacy.
Protect the business that took so much hard work and dedication to build. Understand the risk and reduce your liabilities by educating employees and enforcing a strong privacy policy. No board or company is immune to the threat of lawsuits. Brenda will help any business owner implement the Affirmative Defense Response System at no cost. A brief amount of time could save thousands of dollars when staff members understand how to protect nonpublic information.
