New benefit gives members access to professional identity restoration support and monitoring tools
WATERLOO, Iowa, Oct. 29, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Veridian Credit Union members now have complimentary access to Allstate Identity Protection through Credit Central, Veridian's free credit monitoring tool within online banking.
The added support comes as identity theft is making a growing financial impact on U.S. consumers. Identity theft losses reached an all-time high of $27.3 billion in 2025, according to the 2026 Identity Fraud Study from Javelin Strategy & Research.
Veridian members who are enrolled in Credit Central and believe they are experiencing identity theft can now use identity fraud finder tools and work with a professional restoration specialist on monitoring high-risk transactions, dark web exposure and more. Monitoring for additional fraud continues for at least three months after a restoration case is resolved.
"Providing identity restoration support through a tool members already have access to is another way we can help them protect their financial lives and move forward with confidence," said Mallory Paeper, Veridian's manager of fraud and disputes. "Your financial well-being includes more than knowing your credit score. It also means having support when your personal information is compromised."
The identity protection benefit expands the resources already available to Veridian members through Credit Central, Veridian's free credit monitoring tool within online banking. Credit Central gives members access to their credit score and credit report, credit monitoring alerts and personalized tools designed to help them better understand and manage their credit. Credit Central is available to Veridian members within online banking at no cost, giving members easier access to credit information and identity protection as part of their everyday banking experience.
