Although the Internet basically provides everyone a positive experience, attacks against our personal privacy and security are reaching epidemic proportions. These cyber-attacks are occurring in our own homes and businesses. Our personal computers are being used as zombies to attack the computers of other people, their businesses, and our nation. As an average Internet user, you may not be aware of these threats nor have any idea about the dramatically increasing risks you face when your computer is connected to the Internet. As an Internet Safety Advocate and Educator, I am on a campaign for Internet safety awareness and protection. My mission is to bring critical awareness to you as individuals, families, and small business owners, and to provide access to the necessary tools and ongoing expertise to secure your computer and help you stay securely protected. Join the many thousands of others who have tested their computers, discovered these threats are real, and taken the necessary steps to protect themselves, their families, and their small businesses. Therefore, I encourage you to click the red test button below to scan your computer and get your free report about the hackers, viruses, and spyware that may be preventing you from staying safe online.

Identity theft has become the greatest threat to your personal privacy and your financial security. It's a problem you can't afford to ignore.
What is true identity protection? It's:
* Protecting your whole identity, not just your credit.
* Protection for your entire family including children.
* Full identity monitoring - proactively watching out for all forms of identity theft, including credit fraud.
* Having a truly comprehensive identity recovery service in the event the unthinkable should happen.
* Having trained professionals handle it all for you from beginning to end.
The iDefend service includes:
A. iDefend Credit Watch:
The benefits of credit monitoring without the hassles. We'll help you regularly monitor your credit for suspicious activity and make sure you receive printed copies of your credit reports from all three credit bureaus consistently throughout each year. Includes personal guidance for answering questions and analyzing your reports, as well as scheduled monitoring throughout the year in order to monitor your credit activity regularly.
B. Identity Monitoring:
With 67% of identity theft cases involving non-credit fraud, we proactively screen thousands of public records, national databases, and even underground Internet markets for - true identity theft - using your social security number and name. Includes an Identity Risk Score to rate your susceptibility and help predict identity theft before it occurs.
C. Full Identity Recovery:
In the event your identity is stolen, we provide truly comprehensive recovery for all types of identity theft, not just your credit, continuing to work until your identity has been restored to its pre-theft status. You’ll be assigned a trained personal recovery advocate who will set up a personalized recovery plan and then handle everything for you through a limited power of attorney – research, paperwork, disputes, documentation of fraud resolution, and more. We also work with law enforcement to track down your thief and help put them behind bars. Includes $10,000 identity theft expense reimbursement insurance.
