Every three seconds a person’s identity is stolen in this country. Every individual is at risk, and most businesses have exposure to liability resulting from the wrongful disclosure of personal information. This seminar will focus on the impact of identity theft and real-world situations that insurance professionals face when dealing with the threat or reality of identity theft. The speakers will review statistics of identity theft, share best practices to help mitigate exposure and identify resources available to resolve incidents.
