How much does Identity Defender cost?

When will Identity Defender launch globally?
Because Identity Defender relies on a complex mix of region-specific factors—like local laws and data regulations, how public records are maintained and accessed, and the way identity-related systems operate in each country—international availability hasn’t been confirmed yet. We’re actively evaluating what’s required to offer the service outside the U.S.
How do I get started with ID Defender?
If you’re in the U.S., simply sign-up for an ExpressVPN plan that includes the service (Advanced and Pro tiers). Then download the standalone Identity Defender app, log-in using your ExpressVPN credentials, and follow the in-app prompts to start protecting your personal details.
Is Identity Defender the same as Microsoft Defender for Identity?
No. Microsoft Defender for Identity is an enterprise security product built for organizations. ExpressVPN Identity Defender is designed for individuals—offering personal identity protection such as credit monitoring, data broker removal, dark web exposure alerts, and up to $5 million in identity theft insurance for eligible U.S. subscribers.
