Identity Guard, one of our five star rated identity theft protection services, has significantly improved their service by adding a 30 day free trial and the enhanced protection of ZoneAlarm Internet security software. These new features enhance their extensive identity theft detection tools such as three bureau credit report monitoring, access to all three credit reports and scores, fraud monitoring across thousands of databases and $20,000 in identity theft insurance in the unfortunate case that a subscriber is victimized.

While Identity Guard has long offered new subscribers a free second month, this new free trial allows consumers to truly try before they buy and make sure that the Identity Guard service is right for them. New identity Guard subscribers that cancel their subscription before the end of the 30 day free trial period will not be charged any fees at all.

Additionally, Identity Guard has added a free subscription to ZoneAlarm Internet security software with ongoing subscription to their identity theft protection service. We have found that many consumers don’t realize just how big of a threat the Internet can be to their identity. Many criminals use malicious computer viruses, email and phishing scams to gain access to personal information that can be used to perpetrated identity theft. Identity Guard is offering a truly comprehensive online and offline identity theft protection service by pairing their core product with the protection of ZoneAlarm.

We have reviewed ZoneAlarm as part of our Internet Security Software comparison and found it to be an amazingly effective tool at stopping the many dangers that face consumers and their computers while using the Internet.

We continue to strongly recommend Identity Guard for most consumers. learn more about Identity Guard and other identity theft protection services by visiting our guide to identity theft protection services.
