Neustar Inc., a global information services and technology company and leader in identity resolution, today announced the launch of Neustar Unified Identity™, the only end-to-end identity management solution that enables resolution of offline to online identifiers by responsibly connecting people, location, and device data. The new solution powered by Neustar’s unrivaled identity graph platform, OneID™, transforms data management to enable better data-driven decision making and outcomes for brands by supporting data onboarding, linking, enrichment, and validation.

According to a recent study by Forrester Consulting that evaluated how brands are adjusting their customer data strategies in the face of shifts in the marketing landscape, brands “struggle to meet the moment with comprehensive, identity-based strategies that would let them simultaneously tackle issues of privacy management, data governance, and marketing management.”i Neustar Unified Identity enables brands to develop identity-based, privacy-forward approaches that improve omnichannel customer data quality, management, and governance across marketing, analytics, and technology use cases.

“Our goal with Unified Identity is to bring simplicity and order back to customer data management helping our clients to better manage data between departments and partners using a single, unassailable source of truth,” said Michael Schoen, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Marketing Solutions at Neustar. “Data chaos kills organizational efficiencies, strategic clarity, and ultimately business growth. Unified Identity is the high-value currency that provides brands the privacy-centric data quality they need, while eliminating the data fragmentation and organizational pains many brands struggle with.”
