May 1st Is Fast Approaching - Are You Red Flag Ready??

On May 1, 2009, the FTC's six month suspension of the enforcement of the Red Flag Rules will be lifted.  Is your organization's Identity Theft Prevention Program in place?  If not, review the requirements at 16 CFR 681 on the MediRegs research portal.  If your organization has implemented a program - be sure it passes compliance muster by conducting the Red Flag Rules risk assessments developed by MediRegs for ComplyTrack.  Question sets include:

• Administering the Program
• Alerts, Notifications, Warnings
• Detecting Red Flags
• Identifying Red Flags
• Notice of Identity Theft
• Prevention and Mitigation
• Red Flag Rules - General
• Suspicious Documents
• Suspicious Personal Identifying Information
• Unusual Use or Suspicious Activity
• Updating the Program
