Overview:
IDCARE is Australia and New Zealand’s national identity and cyber support community service. Our organisation provides community members, small businesses and organisations with specialist client care where personal, account and credential information are compromised.
Unlike any other, we blend the behavioural with the pragmatic and the technical expertise. We apply the most current, up-to-date and lived experiences and advice to our clients, not the corporate or government "speak" - but what clients really need to know.
IDCARE is independent, impartial, expert, and renowned across industries and governments for being the ‘go to’ place when people are in crisis about their privacy welfare. No other organisation truly gives people a one-stop-shop in client care and support for victims of cybercrimes, scams, identity theft and privacy breaches. That's why each year we are responding to in excess of 100,000 engagements across Australia and beyond.
We’re expanding our presence in the Australian market. Our services are in demand, and we are working with a wide range of companies, including some of Australia’s biggest corporates, to help them support their staff and customers.
