Identity Defender: Stronger privacy for identity protection
Identity Defender offers a suite of tools designed to give you more control over your personal information. Currently available to ExpressVPN users in the U.S.
What is Identity Defender?
Identity Defender is a suite of identity theft protection tools designed to give you more control over your personal information. This suite includes four essential products—ID Alerts, ID Theft Insurance, Data Removal, and Credit Scanner—working together to provide a comprehensive, multi-layered solution for safeguarding your identity.
ExpressVPN’s Identity Defender is seamlessly built into the ExpressVPN mobile apps, making setup fast and straightforward. Get started in just minutes without any extra apps or complex configurations.
Currently available to new ExpressVPN users in the U.S.*
Data Removal
Your personal information is a commodity to data brokers. Our Data Removal service scours data brokers and people-search sites to find and remove your details.
Data Removal is included at no additional cost for new U.S. subscribers who sign up for two years of ExpressVPN.
ID Alerts
From unauthorized changes of address to personal information exposed on the dark web, ID Alerts monitors and notifies you of suspicious activity, so you can take action before it’s too late.
ID Alerts is free for all new ExpressVPN subscribers in the U.S.
ID Theft Insurance**
Worried about identity theft? Our insurance reimburses you for eligible losses if your identity is fraudulently used by someone else.
ID Theft Insurance is included at no extra cost for new U.S. subscribers who sign up for one or two years of ExpressVPN.
Credit Scanner
Easily monitor your credit activity right in the ExpressVPN app. Catch the signs of identity theft, so you can take action to remedy the issue and protect your credit.
Credit Scanner is included at no extra cost for new U.S. subscribers who sign up for one or two years of ExpressVPN.
Why protect your personal information?
If your personal information is revealed, others can use it to more easily commit identity fraud, launch scams against you, steal from you, and even compromise your physical safety. Identity theft can be extremely stressful for victims, entailing a costly and time-consuming process to remedy the situation.
Your personal information can be discovered in various ways, ranging from sophisticated methods like data breaches at companies to a simple Google search.
Identity Defender tools offer protection for your personal information by removing it from accessible platforms, alerting you to events surrounding your identity and credit, and providing financial coverage in case you become a victim of identity theft.
