# What's the best value employee identity theft protection app for remote workers?

<p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Remote work changes the requirements before price even enters it: people on home and public Wi-Fi, on their own devices, spread across locations. So I'd weight three things, then judge value against them:</p><ul>
<li>
<strong>Device and connection security</strong> (public Wi-Fi is the real risk)</li>
<li><strong>Dark web monitoring</strong></li>
<li><strong>A clean, mobile-friendly dashboard</strong></li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">Against that, the ones I'd look at:</p><ul>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/privacy-bee/reviews"><strong>Privacy Bee</strong></a> — best value pick. Low per-seat pricing, and reviewers repeatedly credit the automated data-broker removal with saving real time. The gripe: some features sit behind the paid tier, so map the plan to what your team needs.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/norton-lifelock-benefit-solutions/reviews"><strong>Norton LifeLock Benefit Solutions</strong></a> — strongest for remote setups, pairing identity monitoring with device security and encrypted connections. Reviewers like how fast it flags suspicious activity.</li>
<li>
<a class="a a--md" elv="true" href="https://www.g2.com/products/aura-com-aura/reviews"><strong>Aura</strong></a> — a broad suite in one app (identity protection, VPN, malware scanning, dark web) across devices, though its G2 review pool is small, so treat that as a lighter data point.</li>
</ul><p class="elv-tracking-normal elv-text-default elv-font-figtree elv-text-base elv-leading-base elv-font-normal" elv="true">What's your rough per-employee budget, and are people on company-managed devices or their own? That answer decides between a device-security bundle and a lean monitoring app.</p>

&lt;p&gt;Ask which vendors can auto-enroll new employees on day one through HRIS integration versus which require manual enrollment steps. For remote workers specifically, also ask whether dark web monitoring happens continuously or only when you log in and check, because remote employees are less likely to proactively engage with a monitoring dashboard.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Worth weighing the restoration side as much as the monitoring. Detection tells someone their data showed up somewhere, but the value an employee actually feels is having a case manager handle the paperwork with banks and credit bureaus afterwards. Norton LifeLock and Aura both cover that, and it&#39;s the part people remember when the benefit comes up for renewal.&lt;/p&gt;

### Comment 3

&lt;p&gt;For company-managed devices, I’d lean toward a device-security bundle because remote workers are connecting from networks the company doesn’t control. If employees are using their own devices, I’d put more weight on a lighter identity-monitoring option with dark web monitoring and a simple mobile experience.&lt;/p&gt;

### Comment 4

&lt;p&gt;The device question is the whole fork, agreed. One wrinkle I&#39;d add from talking with people who run remote-heavy teams: on personal devices, employees push back on anything that smells like company software watching their machine, so the lean monitoring apps get adopted where the device bundles quietly don&#39;t. Budget follows the same logic. Paying for a bundle nobody installs is the most expensive option on the list.&lt;/p&gt;
