About Us
The mission of Privacy Solutions is to protect businesses and consumers from the devastating effects of security breaches and identity theft. Currently, the greatest challenge to consumer privacy is identity theft and corporate data breaches. Since February 2005, 150 million consumers have been victims of a corporate data breach. Much of this data is being warehoused for future use in identity theft. In additional financial misuse like opening credit cards in a victims name, twenty-two percent of identity theft victims report that their identity was used in some “non-financial” way such as commission of a crime or filing of false tax returns. Privacy Solutions Services addresses both financial and non-financial identity theft misuse.
Privacy Solutions was formed in 2005 to aggregate the existing technology of Annowa, LLC (led by two former ChoicePoint Inc.(NYSE) executives) and the distribution channels of Invision Multimedia, Inc. Annowa’s technology, originally designed to provide pre-employment screening to over 1000 businesses, was adapted to deliver Privacy Solutions’ “Early Alert” product. Privacy Solutions’ proprietary products are designed to be secure, scalable, preventative and consumer friendly.
