History
Internet Identity was founded in 1996 to fulfill the need for outsourced domain management services. In 1997, the company discovered and disabled one of the first phishing attacks against AOL (long before phishing became such a publicized problem). Since then, Internet Identity has been helping protect both company brands and consumer pocketbooks against cyber attacks.
