AllClear ID (aka AllClear and formerly Debix) provides products and services meant to protect people and their personal information from threats related to identity theft. AllClear ID's main service providers include technology and customer service teams.

Data breach response services

The breach response services from AllClear ID include notification, call center & customer support, and identity protection products. Notification provides access to identity protection services. The call center provides a team experienced in managing the anxiety of breach victims to answer questions about the incident, reassure individuals, and explain the identity protection services offered. Products are available to mitigate risk from different types of breaches including compromised credit cards, passwords, health information, and Social Security numbers. AllClear ID has worked with large companies to manage sensitive and highly-visible breach responses including The Home Depot, P.F. Chang's, Michael's–Aaron Brothers, The UPS Store, Dairy Queen, Albertson's–SuperValu, and Anthem BCBS. This is an advertisement [citation needed]

Child identity theft research

In April 2011 AllClear ID released a report with Richard Power, a distinguished fellow at Carnegie Mellon University CyLab, on the prevalence of child ID theft. Using the data supplied by AllClear ID, Power completed the largest report ever done on child identity theft. From the database of over 40,000 children, Power found that 4,311 had someone else using their Social Security numbers.[1]

The Today Show led a follow-up investigation, interviewing victims of child identity theft. Investigators found some of the thieves who were still living and working using a child's Social Security number.[2]

In July 2011, CEO Bo Holland, along with leaders from the Social Security Administration, Identity Theft 911, The Identity Theft Resource Center, and more, spoke at Stolen Futures, the FTC forum on Child Identity Theft.[3] There he presented the findings from the CyLab report on child identity theft, as well as findings from follow up data sampling since the report release.[4]

In May 2012, AllClear ID released a follow-up report on child ID theft data involving 27,000 minors.[5][6] This report further confirmed the growing problem of child identity theft, indicating that children were targeted at a rate 35 times greater than that of adults[7]
