The Risk and Insurance Management Society, Inc. (RIMS), recently began offering the identity theft prevention service IdentitySweep to RIMS members at a discount.

IdentitySweep, a service from MyPublicInfo, Inc., uses a new process for fraud prevention called identity scoring, which searches databases and chat rooms for a consumer's personal information that could be stolen, such as Social Security numbers and credit card numbers.

"As risk management professionals, our members take identity theft very seriously and we are enthusiastic about adding an identity theft prevention tool to the group of benefits that RIMS membership offers," said Joseph Restoule, RIMS secretary and member of the board of directors, in a release. "MyPublicInfo's innovative technology will play a significant role in helping deliver an important resource to the risk management community."
