Club Benefits
Over 900,000 consumer records, including names and email addresses, have been stolen from digital security company Aura in a data breach.
If you're a current, or former, Aura subscriber, you may be worried. Although Aura said social security numbers (SSN), passwords, and financial information weren't accessed, having your name and email leaked can still cause a multitude of problems, ranging from spam to identity theft.
Built by the team behind NordVPN – the best VPN in our testing – NordProtect comes bundled with the VPN's top-tier plan – NordVPN Prime.
Your data has been leaked – now what?
If you've been caught up in Aura's data leak, don't panic. Ensure your accounts are protected with secure passwords and 2FA. Be extra vigilant when dealing with unknown calls, texts, or emails, and never click on links or hand over any personal information unless you're certain it's genuine.
Then you can start to explore other ways of protecting yourself. NordProtect, included in a NordVPN Prime subscription, offers a variety of ID theft protection features.
Dark web data alerts and monitoring scans the Dark Web for appearances of your data, and warns you if anything is discovered. It monitors 24/7 and immediately sends an alert if your SSN, phone number, or email address has been found.
Credit monitoring alerts you of any suspicious activity relating to your credit score, financial accounts, and new credit cards. Credit freeze assistance means any unauthorized accounts opened in your name can be stopped.
You'll be provided with identity theft insurance coverage up to $1 million, and cyber extortion insurance coverage of up to $100k. Alongside the coverage, a dedicated case manager will be on hand to assist you.
NordVPN Prime, and subsequently NordProtect, is a US-exclusive. Thanks to our exclusive deal, you'll not only get four extra free months, but also a $50 Amazon gift card.
However, there is a lower level of protection offered for users in other regions. NordVPN Ultimate covers the UK and parts of Europe. It costs £4.45/€6.35 per month and provides you up to £5,000/€5,000 in scam and ID theft recovery insurance. Four extra months are also included with NordVPN Ultimate, but only UK subscribers will get their hands on £50 Amazon gift cards.
Alongside NordProtect, NordVPN Prime subscribers benefit from every VPN and cybersecurity feature the company offers. This includes scam call protection, the NordPass password manager, 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage, and ad, malware, and tracker blocking in the form of Threat Protection Pro.
You'll receive our top-rated VPN. NordVPN boasts class-leading privacy and security, is one of the fastest VPNs we've tested, and its near-flawless unblocking power makes it the best streaming VPN. Its core VPN features include:
- 1,200+ Mbps speeds
