Business identity theft protection is important because small and mid-sized businesses are frequent targets of cyberattacks, which makes them more vulnerable to identity theft. Using business identity theft protection tools supports compliance with regulatory data protection requirements and strengthens efforts to mitigate both fraud and cyberattacks.

This service focuses on Employer Identification Numbers (EIN), business credit, and employee devices. Consumer solutions typically focus on Social Security numbers and personal credit reports.
