Identity fraud can be particularly difficult to manage. A consumer’s physical or digital identity can be used for employment fraud, benefits fraud, tax return fraud, and more. Along with the negative effects that fraud can have on the immediate victim, taxpayer dollars go to waste and government programs see diminished results. Unfortunately, there is a natural assumption of identity fraud as a cost of doing business.

In this course, you’ll learn why government agencies need to move toward a multi-layered, corroborative approach to fraud, in order to provide the best of defense, hospitality, and ease of use.
