Can having a friendly conversation in a public place make you or your business a target for identity fraud?  By inadvertently revealing personal information in such settings, anyone can open the door for identity theft, especially when standard knowledge-based authentication challenges and responses follow a set of "canned" replies to simple questions: your mother's maiden name, your first pet's name, your first car.  In this new Essential Series entitled Strengthening Application Security with Identity Fraud Prevention Systems, IT expert and author Ken Hess shows you how to protect your clients from identity theft using new methods of verification and authentication.  You will learn how to overcome regulatory compliance concerns surrounding knowledge-based authentication and verification and determine whether your current (or proposed) identity fraud prevention system will scale to meet future risks.
