The partnership will give union members resources to deter identity theft and resultant fraud. In the event a member should fall victim to identity fraud, ID360's recovery team, which includes former federal, state and local law enforcement professionals and former prosecutors, takes immediate action to restore the member's identity. This valuable service can save workers from having to take days off from work to complete very complex restoration tasks, which can average up to six months or longer.
"We're happy to bring our services to members of the National Labor Alliance of Health Care Coalitions," said Jim LaPiedra, CEO and President of ID360. "Unlike other identity protection services, the ID360 model is an action-oriented one, designed to protect our members' identities in the first instance and handle the recovery for them in the event of identity fraud, which continues to grow at an alarming rate and from which none of us is immune."
"Members of the National Labor Alliance of Health Care Coalitions are hard workers that shouldn't have to compromise their income or earning potential to the damaging consequences of identity theft. With ID360's services, they can avoid the need to call out on workdays to perform the time-intensive measures involved in restoring one's identity. It also ensures that the devious actions of identity criminals will not diminish a worker's eligibility to receive benefits that their Health Fund provides", Doug Rubbelke, NLA Executive Director said.
"It's unfortunate that data breaches occur in today's society, but because they are occurring with increased frequency is exactly why the NLAHCC has teamed up with ID360. We want to ensure that our members are equipped to take action to protect against identity theft and fraud. But we also realize that identity fraud cannot always be prevented and wanted a results-driven company to resolve these matters in a way that does not interfere with the work schedules or productivity potential of our members," said Linda Vincent, Treasurer of the NLA. "This solution provides experts the ability to take swift action on behalf of our members to resolve identity fraud issues in an efficient and effective manner."
ID360's recovery process is based upon a proven methodology utilized by law enforcement agencies and security professionals alike. The firm's investigative capabilities includes a network of former law enforcement professionals who have worked directly for or with the very agencies that investigate data breaches, such as the FBI and Secret Service. Employing a team of multidisciplinary identity protection specialists enables ID360 to manage all aspects of restoring an individual's identity without the hassle of going it alone.
"The type of up-to-date expertise we provide is vital, because offenders are always at work coming up with new ways to commit crimes," Jim LaPiedra said. "People need more than a way to monitor their identities. They need trusted specialists to resolve these cases without cutting any corners."
"The frequency and severity of data breaches and the damage caused to innocent, hard-working individuals and their families make this service a must-have," Rubbelke said.
