“Online security is a great first line of defense, but the best offline offense is to guard your identity, your money and your credit with identity theft protection,” said Janice Chaffin, group president of the consumer business unit at Cupertino, Calif.-based Symantec (Nasdaq:SYMC). “In partnership with LifeLock, we want to provide consumers with the tools they need to better safeguard themselves in both worlds.”

LifeLock is looking to partner with other companies to provide better resources for consumers.

“You, your identity and your financial information are more vulnerable than ever before, and people need to protect themselves and their wallets — no matter if they’re in a crowded public place or shopping online from home,” said Todd Davis, CEO of Tempe-based LifeLock.
