Debix vs. Lifelock
Posted By: Dr. Frugal in Credit on 07/26/2007 at 14:38:10
There are two leading companies offering personal identity theft protection: Lifelock and Debix. Lifelock has been established longer, has larger-profile clients and offers up to $1 million in guarantees of protection. Debix is relatively new but has already claimed some larger clients, including the State Offices of Ohio, who signed up en masse after a data breach early in 2007. Debix only offers $10,000 but costs less. Below we set up the Debix vs. Lifelock table so you could more easily compare their services.
