EmPro Provides LifeLock to 7,000 employees and 600 client companies

(Scottsdale, AZ, Aug. 25, 2005) – LIFELOCK, the world’s only preventative ID Theft measure, is  announcing a partnership with EmPro Human Resources that will have EmPro offering the LifeLock identity theft protection services to its 7,000 employees and 600 client companies nationwide.

EmPro, with regional offices in Phoenix and Tucson, has been handling the administrative needs of companies in the Southwest for more than 8 ½ years.  With a primary focus on service and integrity, EmPro assists businesses with payroll, human resources and employee benefits. EmPro also has offices throughout Idaho and Colorado.

“We are very excited to have this partnership with EmPro,” said LifeLock CEO Todd Davis. “Companies across the U.S. are always trying to figure out ways to enhance the benefit packages for their employees. Adding the LifeLock services to any benefit package makes perfect sense, especially when employees see information being lost everyday. There is only one way to be fully protected and that is with us.” 

“Everyone at EmPro is proud to partner with LifeLock to offer their special services and protection to our clients and employees,” said Penny Bowers, HR Manager at EmPro. “We truly couldn’t say that we focus on service and integrity if we didn’t do everything we could to protect the best interests of our clients and employees.”

“We’re very happy to be offering LifeLock to our customers during this age when information seems to be getting lost or stolen everyday,” added Randy Gleave, Owner of EmPro. “As a businessman, I don’t see how anyone who owns a company wouldn’t take on a service such as LifeLock.”   

LifeLock uses a system of “locks” on a consumer’s identity in such a way that it cannot be used by anyone except its rightful owner.  The service uses a combination of tactics that include locking up all information, setting and maintaining alerts, forcing banks to contact people directly before issuing credit and removing a member from pre-approved credit card lists. Lifelock also claims that its system is so effective that there is a $1 million guarantee to cover any expenses and legal fees if a problem ever did occur.
