Components
Each identity scoring system uses individual data components to generate their score, meaning that results can vary wildly even for the same individual.
Typical identity score components can include (but are not limited to):
- Name components
- Personally identifying information such as name, address, etc.
- Behavioral use pattern components
- Analyzed patterns of behavior from information.
- Internet components
- Personally identifying information found on the Internet, such as Web sites, blogs, chat rooms, etc.
- Hacker and fraud components
- Personally identifying information that has been stolen in data breaches and may be used in recognizable patterns of fraud, such as unexplained credit card purchases
- Synthetic identity components
- Personally identifying information that is being used to create a new false (“synthetic”) identity.

Famous quotes containing the word components:
“Hence, a generative grammar must be a system of rules that can iterate to generate an indefinitely large number of structures. This system of rules can be analyzed into the three major components of a generative grammar: the syntactic, phonological, and semantic components.”
—Noam Chomsky (b. 1928)
