Experian Consumer Direct has launched FamilySecure.com -- a new resource to help parents monitor for identity theft that may be affecting them and their children. Through the website, parents and guardians can enroll themselves and their children in a credit monitoring product that alerts them of key changes in their credit file and their children’s that could be a sign of identity theft.

With the patent-pending technology of FamilySecure.com, parents and guardians are notified of any credit inquiries, open accounts or public records such as bankruptcies, tax liens or monetary judgments associated with them or their child’s identity. If a match is found, the parent or guardian is alerted via e-mail and information is provided regarding how to take corrective action if identity theft has occurred.

"FamilySecure.com provides peace of mind for parents by monitoring their Experian credit report activity, as well as their children’s, for signs of identity theft," said Ty Taylor, president, Experian Consumer Direct. "This new product represents our continued commitment to delivering the most robust credit monitoring products on the market to maintain the integrity of our customers’ personal information and back this with an unprecedented $2 million guarantee for identity theft expenses."
