Todd Davis Career

Davis and Robert J. Maynard launched LifeLock, a personal fraud prevention company, in 2005. Davis has been the CEO of LifeLock since its inception. Davis used his social security number on billboards and advertisements as part of a marketing campaign to sell his company’s credit monitoring services. As a result, between 2007 and 2008, he was the victim of at least 13 incidences of identity theft, contradicting LifeLock’s assertions that its services protect users from identity theft and fraud. The Federal Trade Commission fined the corporation $12 million for fraudulent advertising, comparing Davis and LifeLock marketing to “con artists.”

In 2010, the company was placed eighth on the Inc. 500 list. Davis took the company public in 2012. LifeLock has over 3 million subscribers and 700 staff by 2014. Davis resigned as CEO of LifeLock in January 2016, becoming executive vice chairman of the Board of Directors on March 1, 2016. In February 2017, LifeLock merged with Norton LifeLock, a Symantec company.
