ANTIfraud is designed to enable each user to set up an Identity and then logically expand the information associated with this identity to include an array of Personal and Professional records, attributes and identifiers.
ANTIfraud is organized by sections. A section contains categories, folders, and SafeCards.
ANTIfraud was designed so that all features are available from the main window, as shown below. The left pane of ANTIfraud is the navigation pane. The bottom part of the navigation pane displays the section buttons. The top part of the navigation pane displays the options available within the open section.
Click
on any icon or area in the illustration below for an explanation of its
function.
For example, meet user Joe Gwynn:
My Identity contains SafeCards on which are stored Joe's personal information including his Social Security card and driver license, his home address and his business address. When My Identity is open, the ANTIfraud window is divided into two panes. The left pane is for navigation, the right pane is called the form pane. The form pane displays the contents of the SafeCard highlighted in the navigation pane, as shown above. Once you have made some quick setup configurations, your first task in ANTIfraud will be to create an Identity. For details, please see: Creating My Identity
Joe's Electronic Wallet has folders for his Personal and Professional data. In each of these folders are subfolders containing data about his Finances, Banking, Vehicles, etc. When Joe's Electronic Wallet is open, the ANTIfraud window is divided into three panes. The left pane is for navigation, the middle pane, called the list pane, displays the names of the SafeCards in the folder. The right pane, called the preview pane, displays the contents of the selected SafeCard and the folder properties, as shown below. For details, please see: Setting up your Electronic Wallet. Once you have created an Identity, your next task in ANTIfraud will be to create SafeCards in your Electronic Wallet.
Joe's Web Logins section is organized according to categories. His user IDs and passwords for online banking, various shopping sites and e-mail are stored as Web Logins on SafeCards in this section.
When the Web Logins section is open, the ANTIfraud window has three panes. The left pane is for navigation, the middle pane displays all of the Web Logins in the category and the right pane displays the properties of the specific Web Login highlighted, as shown below. For details, please see: Creating Web Logins. Once you have created SafeCards in your Electronic Wallet, your next task in ANTIfraud will be to create Web Logins.
Joe's Online Profiles would store his separate Personal and Professional profiles, and any other profiles he might want to use. This feature enables Joe to specify which address, phone number or credit card to use when filling in online forms. When the Online Profiles section is open, the ANTIfraud window has two panes. The left pane is for navigation, the right pane displays a SafeCard on which is stored data pertaining to the selected Online Profile, as shown below. For details, please see: Creating an Online Profile. Once you have created an Identity and SafeCards in your Electronic Wallet, you can create an Online Profile in ANTIfraud.
The ANTIfraud Options dialog enables you to customize the software and perform some basic "housekeeping" tasks with a few easy selections.
To open the ANTIfraud Options dialog:
From the menu bar at the top of the ANTIfraud Main window, click Tools. From the Tools menu, click Options...
The ANTIfraud Options dialog is displayed. This dialog has four tabs with the following functions:
General
The Status Group box shows the version of ANTIfraud that is running on your computer. Click Check for Updates to see if there are new enhancements to the product. For security reasons, it is very important that you are running the very latest updates. Updates are free.
In the Settings group box, select (check) Automatically save forms when switching views. ANTIfraud will save any data you enter on a SafeCard when you open another one before you click Save.
Use the Search group box to specify whether ANTIfraud shall save your search history, and if so, how many searches it shall hold in the drop-down Search history menu. If you select Automatically launch search when selecting history, ANTIfraud will store the addresses of the Web sites that you have visited recently, and as you begin to type in the Search field, the site addresses, beginning with the letters you type, will be displayed.
ANTIphishing
iS3 ANTIfraud's advanced Phishing protection uses multiple technologies to help detect known and potential Phishing sites. The addresses (URLs) of the latest known Phishing sites are downloaded from multiple databases many times each day, and included in your ANTIfraud updates. In addition, ANTIfraud uses heuristics -analysis of behavior and content- to determine the likelihood that a particular site is UNSAFE. Its unique Anti-Phishing Scoring Engine subjects the Web content in your browser to a set of sequential evaluations intended to identify fraudulent sites. When the score reaches the threshold level, ANTIfraud displays a Phishing Alert indicating that the site you are attempting to visit is potentially fraudulent. You can still access the site, but you are advised not to do so.
Select Enable Phishing Protection to receive Phishing Alerts when you are visiting known or suspected malicious sites.
In the Personal White List group box, type in the Web addresses of sites you wish to permit that ANTIfraud may have flagged as potentially malicious sites.
In the Personal Black List group box, type in the Web addresses of sites you wish to block for any reason.
Form Filler
Select Enable Browser Smart Tags to see these assistants when you mouseover forms on e-commerce sites. A smart tag recognizer identifies types of data, such as names, dates, or telephone numbers, and contains the logic needed to fill in online forms automatically.
When you go to a secure Web site for which you have not yet created a Web login, by default, ANTIfraud prompts you to create a Web login for future use. If you do not want ANTIfraud to prompt you to create a new Web login, select (check) the box labeled Do not suggest to create Web logins.
To select the online profile you will be using unless otherwise specified, use the drop-down list to select your Current Online Profile.
Security
In the Database Security group box, click Change Master Password to change your Master Password. You can change the password only for the logged-in user. For example, Jane can change only her Master Password, not John's. For details, please see: Changing Your Master Password.
In the Session Expiration group box, select Log Off On User Switch if you wish ANTIfraud to close if a new user logs in on the computer being used. (Users log in from the Start button in the lower left corner of the screen. This button is a Windows function, not part of ANTIfraud.) For example, if Jane is logged in and then John logs in, ANTIfraud will close. John will need to log in with his Master Password.
Select Log Off On User Switch to close down ANTIfraud when the screen saver comes on. (The screen saver setting is a Windows function, not part of ANTIfraud.)
Type in a value from 1 to 999 that represents the number of minutes that the ANTIfraud session shall remain open before it expires (closes) automatically.
With ANTIfraud, the only information you will need to remember is your Master Password. Each user has his/her own individual Master Password, which opens only that person's records. You might want to change your Master Password from time to time.
If you lose your Master Password,
you will lose all data that you have saved in ANTIfraud. There is no back door
or other means of access by which iS3, the manufacturer of ANTIfraud,
can get into your system. Your data really is locked in a Digital
ID™ Vault that only you can open. For this reason, it is recommended
that you create a strong password and camouflage it in a handwritten document.
For details, please see: Creating
a Strong Master Password in the Online Help system.
If you do lose your Master Password, you will need to delete the data file in your computer that holds all of the encrypted personal information you have entered. Then, when you login again, ANTIfraud will behave as though you are logging in for the first time as a new user. For details on this procedure, please see: Uninstalling/Reinstalling ANTIfraud.
The ANTIfraud toolbar buttons are a quick way to access features. Toolbar buttons enable you to create additional identities, create new and different SafeCards, edit existing SafeCards, generate secure passwords, access the online Help system and get information about the version of iS3 ANTIfraud installed on your computer with one click. For details on button functions, please see: Toolbar Functions
The iS3 ANTIfraud toolbar gives you configurable features for privacy, security and searching. By default, it remains on your Internet Explorer browser window while you are online, as shown above. For details on toolbar functions, please see: ANTIfraud Browser Security Toolbar.
The ANTIfraud System Tray Icon, 
in the lower right corner
of your screen, indicates that iS3 ANTIfraud is installed and has launched.
Right-click on the Icon to access the main menu, which enables you to
open ANTIfraud, logout, and go directly to Web sites with your personal
Web Logins. For details, please see:
The System Tray Icon.
