The Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce today announced a joint effort to protect the identities of its members and all their employees given the recent major corporate security breaches that exposed millions of people to identity theft. The Chamber, in conjunction with IDENTITY THEFT PROTECTION SERVICE FOR DUMMIES™ by SaberGuard, an industry leader in identity theft protection, now offers members and all their employees free identity theft protection for a full year.
“By including SaberGuard in their employee benefits program, Chamber members are not only providing employees with peace of mind, but also protecting their business from a potential loss of productivity while employees try to reclaim their identities,“ says Ben Wollitz, Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce vice president of membership. “All of our members and all their employees are now are able to test drive SaberGuard’s identity theft protection for a year before committing to anything.”
The Chamber-sponsored identity theft protection provides members the following peace of mind and protection necessary in the face of an ongoing battle with attempted security breaches:
- Identity Security – guaranteed stolen identity restoration performed on behalf of members by identity recovery and restoration specialists
- Personal ID Coach - to contact for direction related to the exposure of personal information, how to limit the risk of identity theft and to report any concerns or suspicious activity
- SAFEONLINE IDTHEFTWARE – exclusive identity theft protection software to bolster protection where anti-virus software falls short. Helps to secure your identity when buying, banking or browsing online and alerts the user to potential phishing emails and other attempts by fraudsters to obtain personal information online.
