For people concerned with, or have suffered from identity theft, please consider using a credit freeze to secure yourself. All the credit monitoring in the world won't help if someone gets your information; they are only useful after an incident has occured. a credit freeze will completely disable the abilty for someone to open a new line of credit with your ID.
Check out this link and follow the directions: http://krebsonsecurity.com/2015/06/how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-embrace-the-security-freeze/
For some perspective; it only costs me $6 total to implement a credit freeze at all the major brokers, and will cost the same amount to un-freeze. After dealing with ID theft, that $6 is the best money I've spent in a long time.
