Abstract
System and methods perform identity freezing. A user input requesting halting of operations related to a plurality of accounts or profiles of the user at different local systems is received. In response, a token mapping database is accessed to identify a personally identifiable information (PII) token for the user. A freeze message with the PII token is transmitted to the different local systems to halt operations associated with the plurality of accounts or profiles of the user. Thereafter, at the different local systems, the operations associated with the plurality of accounts or profiles of the user are halted to freeze an identity of the user. More efficient communication and operations to freeze the user accounts and profiles thereby result.
