British Security Industry Association: new website. A new website has been launched by the British Security Industry Association to assist businesses in protecting themselves and their customers from becoming victims of identity fraud.

The website explains why businesses should be protecting themselves from identity fraud and provides advice on how to do so.

Anthony Pearlgood, British Security Industry Association Information Destruction Section Chairman, comments: „Identity fraud is an increasingly serious problem for UK businesses, with the crime costing the UK economy £ 1.7 billion. On top of the financial implications, becoming a victim of identity fraud can bring further problems in terms of damage to your reputation and loss of customer confidence in your business. These issues can have serious and lasting consequences.“
