Regulation S-ID, and the information
collection it requires, is designed to better protect consumers
from the risks of identity theft. The regulation requires entities
that are subject to the Commission’s jurisdiction to address
identity theft in two ways. First, the rules and guidelines require
financial institutions and creditors to develop and implement a
written identity theft prevention program designed to detect,
prevent, and mitigate identity theft in connection with certain
existing accounts or the opening of new accounts. Second, the rules
establish special requirements for any credit and debit card
issuers that are subject to the Commission's jurisdiction, to
assess the validity of notifications of changes of address under
certain circumstances.

changes in the staff’s estimates of the number of entities that
could be financial institutions or creditors.
