Protecting Confidential Information

One of today's fastest growing crimes today is Identity Theft.  Where do fraudsters obtain the information they use to assume someone’s identity?  Who maintains this type of information?  Does your organization store information like name, address telephone number, Social Security number, mother’s maiden name, account numbers, expiration dates, CVV/CVC codes, CVV2/CVC2 codes, passwords, credit scores and birth dates?

Do you allow your employees to access this information in its entirety?  If a compromise happens can you track the identity of everyone who accessed the information for a reasonable period of time?

Do you enforce the “secure information” policies you publish to employees?  Can operators sign on more than one terminal simultaneously?  Who manages the assignment of access to information?  Is access to all information automatically to both long-term employees and new hires, even temporary employees?

Are your systems secure to unauthorized access (hacking)?  Have you ever had a professional team, other than your own IT departments perform an audit?
