The Advanced Identity Protector is a Potentially Unwanted Program (PUP) offered by PCVARK, a company whose name is linked to a variety of other suspicious applications such as the Identity Protector, the Advanced PC Care and others. The Advanced Identity Protector is being sold on the software's official website, and it is described as a one-of-a-kind tool that can help users protect their online identity.

However, the operations that the Advanced Identity Protector carries out are not that special, and most users might find the program's features underwhelming. Apart from not being as special as PCVARK claims it to be, the Advanced Identity Protector also is a tool that will not complete any of the promised operations unless the user opts to pay for the premium license of the application. The trial variant of the Advanced Identity Protector is only able to scan for potential fixes and methods to protect the user's identity, but it will not apply any of the fixes unless the premium version is activated.

We advise you not to pay for the full version of this product because the Advanced Identity Protector is not a valuable application. In addition to this, it uses dubious tricks to convince users that they need to purchase the full license – reminders, and alerts that their privacy is not protected, as well as exaggerated warnings that their privacy might be at risk. If you have installed the Advanced Identity Protector software, we suggest you remove it immediately with a suitable PC security tool.
