How Identity Shield Can Help You

Did you know that the Quest Diagnostics breach disclosed in June exposed the personal information of nearly 12 million patients? Every second, 14 sensitive records are exposed in a breach1, and nearly every 2 seconds someone is the victim of payment fraud2 or there is a new victim of identity crime3. Don't take any chances with your personal or financial information. Identity Shield is designed to secure, monitor, and restore your personally identifiable information and offers many additional benefits.
 
  • Dark Web Monitoring - The Dark Web is a network of untraceable online activities and websites on the Internet that cannot be found using search engines. To access them, you need to use specific software, configurations or have authorization. The most common use for the Dark Web is buying and selling illegal goods including stolen personal information on the online black market. Identity Shield will monitor the Dark Web daily for your name, address, email address, and phone number.
  • Alerts - Identity Shield will send you alerts if your information is detected so you can act fast to start the recovery process.
  • Certified Resolution Specialist - Should your information be stolen, a certified Resolution Specialist will be there to offer one-on-one support to assist in securing, monitoring, and restoring your data. You will not be alone in this process.
  • End2End Defense® - The certified Resolution Specialist will walk you through a 32-step restoration process designed to discover, isolate, and protect against future attacks.
  • Educational Tips - Education is the best way to stay one step ahead of identity thieves. Identity Shield will send you information monthly on the latest breaches, scams, and identity theft protection tips.
  • 24/7 Live Support - Identity crime can happen at any time, that is why the Resolution Center is open all day, every day to answer your questions and help you quickly resolve any identity problems. They are also there to answer questions about scams, suspicious emails, phone calls, and more.
  • Online Identity Vault™ - Never choose convenience over security again. Identity Shield offers you an online vault that is an easily accessible place to store your sensitive data like Social Security numbers, credit and debit cards, driver's license information, and more.
  • Daily Dark Web Monitoring - Monitoring services are extended to information stored in your online vault to ensure even your most sensitive data is safe and secure.
  • Password Manager - It's tough remembering all of those passwords, let alone trying to keep them secure. The Password Manager allows you to store and generate strong passwords that will keep the bad guys out but easy access when you need them.
  • There's an App - The EZShield app is convenient and gives you the ability to quickly and securely store information. For example, it’s an easy way to plug in and access your children’s Social Security Numbers so you don’t have them written down on a piece of paper in your wallet – or worse, have their actual Social Security card on you.

Your information is out there, whether or not you shop online, use a debit card or always pay with cash. Everyone pays taxes, the majority of people have applied for credit, etc. This service is important and provides you the benefit of having expert help when something happens, or even if you simply have questions.
