LifeLock Solution  

LifeLock helps combat identity theft. Upon enrollment, members can submit fraud alerts to credit bureaus. With fraud alerts in place, credit card and other financial and theft-prone companies are then required to call the LifeLock member before approving any credit card transactions or applications. 

And there’s more. Members are removed from pre-approved credit cards in the mail and from letters authorizing pre-approved credit limit increases. 

Also among their services, LifeLock intervenes to help resolve identity theft-related credit issues. In short, they’ll go to bat for you, working with creditors, filing related paperwork with the reporting credit bureaus, and working with police reports.  

And LifeLock also participates in other business security services like background checks for employees, random drug testing, and surveillance and alarm systems. Lifelock practices what they preach as well, not storing client data on their site, for example, and hosting only secure data centers.
