Noddle unveils data breach solution

Businesses and customers signed up with the service can get support within 48 hours.

A solution designed to manage data breaches has launched called Noddle Protect.

Firms and customers signed up with the service from Callcredit Consumer Markets can get support within 48 hours.

Consumers will be given a full view of their credit report which includes their credit history in the last six years to help them identify accounts they don’t recognise.

They will also be notified when there are significant changes to their credit report to help them respond.

Changes to EU data protection law mean that from mid-2018 organisations could be fined up to 4% of their global turnover in the event of a serious data breach.

Jacqueline Dewey, managing director of Callcredit Consumer Markets, said: “Managing strategic risk and reputation has become a high priority for executives operating in today’s digital plc.

“Businesses can mitigate the potential impact of a data breach by reacting in the right way: communicating with customers promptly, offering them a way to protect their digital identity and making sure they are kept up to date with the development of the data breach.”
