SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR MITIGATING EFFECTS OF IDENTITY THEFT

摘要

A system and method for mitigating effects of identity theft in transactions that works in real time to identify instances of identity theft. The system may include an authentication module that processes one or more authentication data elements tendered in connection with a transaction request. A confidence module determines a confidence level for the requested transaction based on the available authentication data. At least a portion of the transaction is processed based on the confidence level assigned to the transaction.
