IdentityMate, a privately held identity protection company, launches the Identity Diet service for high target identities. Identity Diet provides a customized identity protection plan based on each individual's unique risks. "Identity theft and related privacy and fraud issues are caused by identity obesity and identity mismanagement," says Henry Bagdasarian. Consumers continue to accumulate and share personal information at an alarming rate thus becoming identity obese while they lack the basic understanding of their privacy rights and identity fraud risks. High target identities, including celebrities, are at a much higher risk of identity theft and need to continuously evaluate their risks and available options to protect their identities. Each person's identity theft risks may be different and considering the ever increasing number of identity theft services and products in the market, which may sometimes seem confusing and overlapping, "a customized Identity Diet Plan is necessary to identify the protection gaps and mitigate the unique risks with the most appropriate and cost effective solutions" says Bagdasarian. ...
