"Black Friday deals are everywhere right now and most of them are pretty forgettable. Another discount on headphones you don't need, a slightly cheaper subscription to a streaming service you already have-you know the drill. But here's one that actually caught my attention: NordProtect, the most popular identity theft protection service, is running a promotion that drops the price to $4.49 per month, down from the usual $14.99. That's a 70% discount, and unlike most Black Friday offers, this one addresses a problem that's getting worse by the day."
"NordProtect comes from Nord Security, the same company making NordVPN and NordPass which means they are definitely not new in the security game. What they've done here is to create a service that handles all the tedious, anxiety-inducing work of keeping your identity safe-so you don't have to be thinking about it every waking moment of your life."
"It monitors credit reports from all three major bureaus, watches bank accounts for weird transactions and even actively scans the dark web for your personal information. That last one is of particular note since the dark web is basically the marketplace where stolen data gets traded around and if your info pops up, you want to know about it immediately. You can check out Gizmodo's review of the service for more details on how it performs in real-world usage."
NordProtect is offering a Black Friday promotion that reduces its identity-theft protection price to $4.49 per month from $14.99, a 70% discount. Identity theft affects Americans frequently—about every 22 seconds—with the FTC reporting over 1.1 million cases in 2024 and consumer fraud losses exceeding $12.5 billion, a 25% year-over-year increase. NordProtect is provided by Nord Security, maker of NordVPN and NordPass, and performs credit monitoring from all three major bureaus, bank-account monitoring, and active dark-web scanning to detect when personal data appears. Gizmodo provides a review of the service's real-world performance.
