Aura Review

Aura can offer you near real-time alerts and insurance, which will provide you with confidence that you're backed by exceptional identity theft protection. Plenty of companies offer identity theft protection, but few will offer comprehensive identity theft protection like Aura. Aura offers powerful identity monitoring and bonus features like malware protection and the VPN. Additionally, Aura now offers an enhanced customer dashboard. Aura believes online security should be simple, smart and intuitive. As a result, they've made improvements to the user experience by making it even easier for customers to discover and activate new features, and more importantly, take action on critical identity, financial, and online threat alerts.
