The Department of Veterans Affairs announced Wednesday that it has accepted an offer from an analytics company to monitor veterans’ personal data for free.

Until a routine security audit is approved, the agency will hand over the data, which was breached as a result of a laptop theft, to ID Analytics. The California-based company, which specializes in identity risk management, will look for patterns of misuse.

ID Analytics said it is offering its service to veterans for free in an effort to get out the word on its new technology.
