Introduction
In today's digital age, safeguarding personal information is crucial. At Truework, we are committed to empowering individuals to control their personal information securely. As a regulated Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA), we adhere to the highest regulatory standards to ensure our products and services remain accurate, trustworthy, and secure.
How Credentials Improves Applicant Outcomes
Truework Credentials allows applicants to share income and employment data directly from their payroll provider. This helps protect against fraud by clearly stating the business entity requesting your information (e.g., lender) and specifying what information will be shared (e.g., past two years of income history).
Data-sharing tools like Credentials help individuals accelerate the application process by putting you in control of how and when your data is shared. Until now, consumers have been required to manually download W2s and pay stubs from different systems in order to share source-of-truth income data directly with a verifier.
Truework Credentials changes the game by giving you the power to share income and employment data directly from your payroll provider. This user-permissioned technology also reduces the risk of data entry errors caused by manual processes, preventing unnecessary application delays.
How Truework Protects Consumer Data
Truework Credentials empowers individuals to control their personal data and share it securely. Applicants can easily share payroll information with a verifying party (e.g., lender) while Truework uses encryption best practices, such as TLS 1.2 and TLS 1.3, to protect the data in transit.
Truework strives to protect all applicant data at-rest as well, mandating the use of at-rest encryption technologies on all systems, as well as envelope encrypting sensitive data stored within those systems. Through this, Truework is able to ensure that applicant data is safe, and secure through all stages of the Credentials process. As a CRA regulated by the Fair Credit and Reporting Act (FCRA), we support applicant's rights to control the accuracy and usage of their data. We employ the principles of least privilege to ensure applicant data is only processed by authorized parties, thus minimizing any associated risks.
