CyberScout launches one-stop marketplace for identity management
Recent breaches like that at Equifax have highlighted the importance of supporting victims with identity management services in the aftermath of an attack.
Identity and data defense firm CyberScout is launching a comprehensive marketplace for identity management, privacy, and cyber security education products and services, aimed at providing individuals with a one-stop-shop solution for all services relating to cyber protection.
Aimed primarily at insurers, CyberScout HQ is designed as an online marketplace that delivers everything needed to combat cyber crime. Brokers and insurers can add their own branding and configure it to address multiple audience segments and prioritized threats for households and businesses.
Identity management is one of the fastest growing voluntary benefits companies can extend to their employees too. Supporting fraud victims with identity management services has been shown to improve recruitment as well as retention.
"CyberScout HQ is a game changer for leading insurers and employers who want to get closer to their customers and employees, attract new demographics and innovate more rapidly," says CyberScout's CEO Matt Cullina. "Bringing together the breadth of CyberScout's industry-leading services and expertise, CyberScout HQ addresses multiple threats to households and businesses, protecting customers from the spiraling risks of today's digital, social and mobile lifestyle and the hyper growth of cyber crime."
The launch includes two tools. Truman Grade is a browser extension that monitors websites and ranks each site on its security so customers can proactively protect their personal information. It alerts the customer to a risk in real time so they can make informed decisions and connect only to safe, legitimate sites. Password Protector offers a password vault that can be branded by insurers as part of their CyberScout HQ marketplace.
