Government Technology - January 2008 - (Page NIC3) “People would give false identification to open a checking account, checks would bounce, and banks were losing a lot of money.” Nannette Rolfe The solution came in winter 2006 when a couple of state legislators began taking a hard look at the issue of identity theft. The result was the passage of House Bill 169, which allowed any state depository institution to obtain information about account applicants. This information included name, date of birth and driver’s license number — data that would, essentially, verify that the person applying was who they claimed they were. ValIDate was NIC’s solution to making this validation process a reality. During the application process, ValIDate allows banks to use the official state portal to instantly crossreference applicant data with the state Driver License Division database. If the data does not match, it is a red flag indicating the applicant may be using a false identity. A small transaction fee paid by participating banks for ValIDate queries is expected to generate enough revenue for the state to employ a program coordinator and program auditor, further bolstering security against identity theft. “In the past couple of years, identity theft has evolved into a high-tech enterprise,” said Herington, whose career began as a police detective in Kansas and Texas. “Information security has turned us into a paranoid society, and the issue impacts citizens as well as credit card issuing companies and the governments that are supposed to manage the process. We are working with the state of Utah to help financial institutions reduce their risk exposure before potentially fraudulent accounts can even be opened.” “The ValIDate solution is a great example of staying on top of the services that we manage and continuously improving upon the expectations of government,” continued Herington. JUSTICE for All But eGovernment is not limited to Utah or countering identity theft. Radical new eGovernment solutions are being deployed from coast to coast. Nebraska is using eGovernment to connect almost every county and district court in the state. The JUSTICE System is a single, search- Advertising Supplement 3 http://www.Utah.gov
