We tested the six most popular identity theft protection services over a three month process. Here are the services that protect you the best.

Millennials are somewhat gullible when it comes to calls, e-mails or popup ads claiming to offer tech support, but delivering only scams.

ProtectMyID doesn't monitor the same breadth of personal and financial information that other services do, nor does it provide extra features.

LegalShield ID Premium failed to impress us due to its lackluster credit-report monitoring and lack of an identity-theft insurance policy.

AllClear ID Pro is the least expensive of the identity-theft-protection services we reviewed. It also offers the least amount of protection.

Identity Guard Platinum is among the better identity-theft-protection services we reviewed during our three-month testing process.

A new study from AV-Test confirms that almost 30 leading Android security programs do a good job of keeping phones and tablets safe.

LifeLock is our Editor's Choice among all the identity theft-protection services we reviewed. It offers comprehensive monitoring and alerts.

IdentityForce UltraSecure+Credit, which costs $19.95 per month, was a close contender for our Editor’s Choice award. It is our runner-up.
