The Consumer Reporting Agency (CRA) analyzes the report using ShieldHub’s proprietary standardization algorithms to create a composite ShieldScoreTM (IC Score) that communicates compliance while keeping the details of your background check report private.
ShieldScoreTM corresponds to one of five levels of compliance risk. IC01+ Scoring is available for ShieldIDs issued or updated effective April 2, 2024.
*ShieldHub provides risk scoring standardization for the basis of the ShieldScoreTM and is not responsible for the engagement acceptance criteria set by the Client’s Policies. ShieldScoreTM considers both the severity and count of criminal convictions in the scope of the background check when determining a composite score. The visual matrix representation identifies thresholds for severity of criminal convictions, total of convictions allowable per level of scoring, is for informational purposes, and is not inclusive of every category or type of crime.
