IdentityForce Announces Social Media Identity Monitoring SuiteIdentityForce, Inc., a pioneer of identity protection solutions and services, today announced the general availability of a new set of identity theft protection capabilities focused on monitoring and alerting members to threats associated with their social media accounts. Wrapped under the technology umbrella of IdentityForce's Social Media Identity Monitoring (SMIM) suite, these new capabilities cover four major social media identity theft triggers: suspicious activity, hacked accounts, imposter accounts, and scams. "Social media plays a critical role in many of our daily lives - but it's clear there are also serious privacy risks," said Larry Kim, Founder of WordStream and COO of MobileMonkey. "It's easy to understand how identity thieves scrape personal information off these social networks to even hack into email accounts, or to battle it out on the Dark Web buying and selling personal information. I applaud IdentityForce in understanding the massive influence social media has on the lives of their members and their families, and in turn their commitment to develop a suite of capabilities that will remove the worry and harm and let us all get back to having positive social interactions." IdentityForce's SMIM suite monitors Facebook, Twitter (News - Alert), YouTube, Google+, and Instagram accounts for threatening social network activity and posts that could be perceived as violent, are using profanity, or could even be categorized as cyberbullying or discriminatory. Members can monitor their own social media accounts, those of their children, and other family members. In just seconds, IdentityForce members can activate SMIM's key features to take control of their digital identity:
