ExpressVPN, PCWorld’s top VPN provider, just made its service even better thanks to the launch of a new suite of identity-theft protection tools.
The new bundle called Identity Defender provides three-part security: identity-theft alerts, identity-theft insurance, and a data-removal service. All new U.S.-based subscribers to ExpressVPN’s 2-year plan will have access to these security tools beginning today. Additional availability is expected to roll out in the future.
In a statement, Lauren Hendry Parsons, a Digital Privacy Advocate with ExpressVPN said, “Discovering that your personal information has been compromised is stressful enough, but figuring out what to do next can be an even bigger challenge. With Identity Defender, we aim to provide users with a one-stop solution that not only helps them quickly determine if their information is at risk but also guides them through effective steps to address any issues.”
The ID Alerts feature offers three monitoring tools: change of address monitoring, dark web monitoring, and Social Security number monitoring. It will continuously scan the web (and dark web) for any of your personal information and then alert you if anything is found. Additionally, it’ll let you know anytime your Social Security number is used or your address has been changed.
Then there is the ID Theft Insurance feature that will help cover you with financial support of up to $1 million in the event that your identity has been stolen. It is worth noting, however, that this perk will only be included with 1-year or 2-year subscription plans. Subscribers to the monthly plan will need to pay an additional $7.99 per month for coverage.
Lastly, there is also the new Data Removal service that will search for your personal information on known data-broker sites and then submit removal requests on your behalf. It will then continue to monitor the sites to ensure your data does not reappear in the future.
All of these new features are available now and can be accessed with either Android or iOS devices, with more platforms to be supported in the near future.
