Overview
VirtualShield uses a sophisticated
Very Early Warning System to monitor
private and public databases for signs of early identity theft and ID theft risk. After adding you and your family’s information, you can safely shop online and use social media knowing your identity is fully secure against breaches.
In the event that your information appears compromised, we will immediately alert you on your
Account Dashboard and via SMS/text message along with instructions on how to protect yourself. If identity theft does happen, our Identity Restoration Team will handle the entire recovery process for you.
