* Automatically placing 90 day credit fraud alerts on behalf of victims immediately after notification and provide the option to enable an indefinite credit fraud alert without waiting for an identity theft incident
* Provide option for free credit freezes and thaws indefinitely without waiting for an identity theft incident
* Build on FACTA and redesign annualcreditreport.com to handle adding, removing, and thawing credit freezes and fraud alerts across ALL credit related bureaus
* A minimum of 5 yrs of free ID/credit monitoring service chosen by the victim from a marketplace. Additional free 2 yrs for each subsequent breach victim experiences
