Aura at a Glance

  • Aura (formerly known as Aura Identity Guard) has upgraded their Ultimate Plan.
  • The Aura Ultimate Plan offers cyber security protection and insures you for up to $5 million dollars if you have your identity stolen.
  • This plan still covers identity theft and has dozens of features such as: online security, password vaults, credit monitoring, access to a VPN, and much more.
  • There are two versions of this plan: individual and family. Both plans have the same coverage, the family plan can be shared with up to 10 adults and any minors in your immediate family.

The world has gone digital. And as we advance and integrate technology more and more into our lives, the opportunities for bad actors to take advantage of you increases as well. Protect yourself online with Aura.


Aura has dropped the name “identity guard” and has upgraded SDPEBA’s coverage so you can now get the Ultimate Plan. The Ultimate Plan offers better financial fraud and identity theft protection than the old plan, and also offers additional features like VPNs, password managers, and more.


One of the best things about Aura is that if you get the Family Plan for just a few dollars more, you can share it with your family. The plan can actually be shared with up to 10 adults (and any minors in your immediate family). That means you can share Aura with your parents, grandparents, and kids, all of whom are usually the target for cyber attacks.


The plan covers a lot of different aspects of cyber security, here are some highlights:

  • Financial Fraud Protection
    • Credit Monitoring Alerts
    • Home and Vehicle Title Monitoring
    • Tax Fraud Protection
    • High-Risk Transaction Alerts
  • Identity Theft Protection
    • Dark Web Monitoring
    • SSN Authentication Alerts
    • USPS Address Monitoring
    • Social Media Privacy Monitoring
  • Privacy and Device Protection
    • Password Manager
    • Safe Web Browsing
    • VPNs
    • Antivirus Software
    • Online Safety Scans

Is Aura right for me?

The short answer is yes. Cyber security is one of the most overlooked aspects of day-to-day life. If you can fit Aura in your budget, you probably want this plan. Around a third of Americans use a VPN of some sort and most of them cost around $12 a month, the individual plan is around that price and the family plan costs about $7 more than that a month. That alone makes this service worth it.


The plan also offers tons of extra features to keep you safe online and insures you should you ever fall victim to identity theft.


This plan is especially useful if you have older family members who need support to make sure they’re not being scammed. And there are plenty of tools that parents can use to help keep their kids safe too.


We highly recommend you consider this plan because the coverage is just that great.
