Corporate SINs appear to be around the corner. In my case, I already have one (albeit without extraterritoriality). As it turns out the Fortune 500 company I work for had a scare a while back when a 3rd party health care provider had a laptop stolen and compromised about 200 Social Security Numbers (SSN). The company has started to roll out a new nine digit number for use in all things corporate. The name: Provisional ID. It has already replaced my SSN for inside the fence and is now - for all intents and purposes - my SSN for my corporate issued credit card. They are lobbying the health care providers to use it in place of the SSN but most haven't broke down yet. I figure it's only a matter of time.
Just thought that I would share. |
