Join Javelin’s Tracy Kitten, Suzanne Sando, Kevin Libby and Jennifer Pitt discuss findings from our recent Child ID Theft report on the persistent risks children face through social media and the internet.

Today’s youth are facing growing cyber and social risks. And these risks have the potential to not only impact one child, but that one child’s entire family network. At Javelin, we see it as a moral imperative to share our research findings on child identity theft and associated risks not only with the financial services industry but with the general public to raise awareness and minimize the impact on children and their families.

The Javelin Fraud & Security team will explore the crucial roles played by identity protection services in safeguarding children's identities. We will cover various examples, such as notifying families about potential risks stemming from social media compromises, breaches of personally identifiable information (PII), and the identification of PII available for sale in underground forums. Join us to uncover the necessary steps financial services providers need follow to educate and support parents and guardians in protecting children's identities.
