TSA Sets Details of Identity Theft Package

TSA has announced that in the wake of the loss last week of a computer hard drive containing Social Security numbers, bank data and payroll information for about 100,000 employees, it has implemented a benefits package for those affected. The package includes free credit monitoring for up to a year, ID theft insurance up to $25,000, fraud alerts and access to identity restoration specialists in the event an employee is a victim of identity theft.

Meanwhile, authorities have launched a "full-blown criminal investigation" into the incident, USA Today reports.
