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.

How does it work?
We can monitor the internet for a leak of your medical ID card. Another type of information that may at first seem insignificant, but in fact it’s quite the 
contrary. Even the most innocent forms of ID can be used to do great harm if this information ends up in the wrong hands.
If stolen by a 
savvy thief, your medical ID can be used to impersonate you when it comes to medical expenses, and result in your name being slandered and left with bills and fees that aren’t actually yours. We will alert you immediately if we detect any suspicious acitity.
We continuously monitor the dark web and actively scan health insurance claims. When an unauthorized change occurs, it triggers a real-time alert. This allows you to 
quickly spot and flag medical services or prescriptions obtained fraudulently in your name.
We can monitor up to 10 medical IDs at the same time to protect your entire household against identity theft, in addition to your own.
