Identity Theft Assistance Center Expands Offerings to ID Theft Prevention with Launch of ITAC Sentinel(TM)

ITAC, the Identity Theft Assistance Center, today introduced ITAC Sentinel™ (www.itacsentinel.com), the only identity protection service with ITAC victim assistance built in. "We’re very proud that ITAC has helped 35,000 customers of member companies recover from identity theft, but from the beginning, the vision was to do more,” said ITAC President Anne Wallace. "We want to help prevent identity theft and to make ITAC victim assistance available to all consumers, whatever financial institution they use.” ITAC, a nonprofit organization supported by financial services companies, will use license revenue from sales of ITAC Sentinel™ to fund its public service activities – partnering with law enforcement to fight identity crime and educating consumers about identity theft. "Preventing identity theft and helping victims isn’t a club and shouldn’t be limited to large financial services companies,” said Steve Bartlett, president and CEO of The Financial Services Roundtable. "By offering ITAC Sentinel™ to their customers, thousands of financial institutions can protect their customers with a product they can feel good about and join the industry’s fight against identity theft.” ITAC Sentinel™ is provided through Intersections Inc., (Nasdaq:INTX) a leading global provider of consumer and corporate identity risk management services. "ITAC Sentinel™ is a flexible, easy-to-implement solution that can be offered directly to customers or employees, or as part of a breach response program,” said John Scanlon, Intersections chief operating officer.
