Aura Review

Features and Services

Aura offers 3 tiers of protection plans (Basic, Total, and Ultimate), each with different features. All 3 tiers include:

• $1M Identity theft insurance coverage*
• Personal Information and ID monitoring
• Online Account and Data breach Monitoring and Alerts
• Dark web monitoring
• Social Security and ID authentication monitoring
• Antivirus software
• WiFi Security VPN for secure browsing
• 24/7/365 customer support via email and phone
The highest tier plan includes the following in addition to the list above:
• Vantage Credit Score
• 3-Bureau Credit Reports
• 3-Bureau Credit Monitoring and Alerts
• White Glove Fraud Resolution for concierge support with dedicated case managers
• Credit Lock
• Home title monitoring
• Criminal and Court Records Monitoring
What impresses us most about Aura is that it provides near real-time alerts to existing threats while also continuously searching for new threats. In a threat landscape that’s always evolving, we view Aura’s adaptive technology as setting it apart from other digital security solutions. We think it’s worth highlighting that Aura takes a comprehensive approach to personal digital security. This means the Aura product features are designed to protect your finances, devices, and your privacy. Two of the Aura’s features are home title monitoring and financial transaction monitoring. Home title theft is a growing concern and Aura will alert you to detected activity related to your property. The financial transaction monitoring features are fully customizable so that you can be alerted to transactions at any threshold for any financial account. Another Ultimate plan feature that we value is the 3-bureau credit report. While Aura provides monthly credit scores, users can request their full, 3-bureau credit report once a year. This information exists right alongside the resources you need to dispute any discrepancies should it be necessary. Finally, to round out the package of protection, Aura offers antivirus protection and VPN (Virtual Private Network). The antivirus software protects devices from infection from all types of malware, as well as from spyware that can gather financial information. Similarly, the anti-adware capability prevents advertisers from pushing unauthorized downloads, which can slow your computer. Aura’s VPN supports private and secure browsing by encrypting your internet connection, shielding your identity from hackers or cyber predators.

Pricing

Aura offers 3 tiers of protection: Basic, Total, and Ultimate. Core identity theft protection is offered for all 3 tiers, and more is included as you move up in plan type. The Basic plan is just $8 per month, the Total plan is $17 per month, and the Ultimate plan is $24 per month.

Support and Customer Service

Aura offers 24/7/365 customer care through phone and email. With the Ultimate plan, you get White Glove Resolution Services, which includes experienced case managers who will work with you 1-on-1 to come up with a mitigation and remediation plan to resolve your identity theft or fraud incident. Aura says that its experts will be by your side to take the stress and confusion away from resolving fraud incidents on your own.

Conclusion

If you value extensive and intelligent protection, and easy-to-reach, experienced customer support, check out Aura. We found their online dashboard and mobile apps to be clean, engaging, and intuitive to use. Interacting with these features gives you a sense of control when it comes to your identity protection, an area where you may feel that you have none. The differences between Aura’s plans are tangible, and while this is reflected in plan pricing, we think that the Ultimate plan ($24 /month) is the best deal on the market for the robust protection it provides against identity theft, financial fraud, and online threats like malware and hacking. Aura makes it simple to understand how to better protect yourself, and offers a neat technology in the business in order to do so.
