Credit score monitoring is a key component of its identity theft protection services.

How Norton monitors your credit

  • Credit score updates: With eligible plans, you can get a credit score and report, with some premium versions offering daily or monthly updates. However, the score is for educational purposes and may differ from what lenders use.
  • Alerts for changes: The primary goal is to send alerts for significant activity on your credit file, which often impacts your score. Examples include:
    • New accounts opened in your name
    • New inquiries for credit
    • Closed accounts
    • Missed payments
    • Increased credit utilization
    • Changes to existing accounts
  • Specific products:
    • LifeLock Advantage and Ultimate Plus include credit reports and scores, as well as bank and credit card activity alerts.
    • Norton Identity Advisor Plus focuses on credit monitoring and alerts for major changes to your credit report.
  • Multi-bureau monitoring: Higher-tier plans like Ultimate Plus monitor the three major credit bureaus—Equifax, Experian, and TransUnion. Lower-tier plans might monitor only one bureau.
