New Evidence Supports Ranking Criteria

San Francisco, CA -- (SBWire) -- 03/16/2015 --BestIDTheftCompanys.com (BIDTC) recently surveyed experts and consumers on how much the ranking criteria for identity protection services contributed to their final decision-making. The criteria were broken down individually and the end-result showed that each point was relevant.

With recent identity theft breaches, identity protection services are more important then ever. Each identity theft company on BIDTC is reviewed and ranked based on weighted criteria. To ensure that the consumer is receiving the most relevant information, BIDTC gathered expert and consumer opinion on the following:

- Identity Protection
- Identity Recovery
- Insurance
- Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP)
- Better Business Bureau (BBB) Rating

Identity Protection, Identity Recovery and Insurance were considered the basis of every identity protection service. Evidence showed that 67% of identity theft experts agreed that the Recovery portion was the most important part of an identity theft protection service.

CISSP is a recognized standard of achievement that confirms an individual's knowledge in the field of information security. 64% of experts surveyed agreed that having a security certification helps legitimize the identity theft protection company.

"A CISSP certified individual has some serious knowledge to protect information systems and their vulnerabilities. Before technology is compromised, CISSPs are there to proactively put systems in place to protect the public from crime." – Robert Siciliano

The recent survey posted the statement, "The Better Business Bureau (BBB) grade/rating of a company affects my decision in purchasing a product or service."

More than 1,000 individuals were surveyed and the results showed 40.8 percent agreed with that statement. Along with that answer, 33 percent were neutral and 26 percent disagreed. This data confirms that a BBB rating is important to customers when researching companies.

Criteria points used to review products and services are only important if the consumer/expert deems it so. In order to maintain the quality of the reviews, BIDTC made sure to survey both experts and consumers to get their opinion. The evidence is clear that BIDTC's criteria points are crucial items to be considered when researching your identity theft protection company.
