It is not clear to me that they actually do anything.They do things when potential bad situations show up. When our kids were younger, we got Lifelock for them and us. With them waving their credit cards around and starting to buy cars, we wanted to try to prevent ID problems.
When one of them went to buy a car, I co-signed for him. The dealer said there was a block on our credit that required that I call them on my phone before the block would be removed. I called. They asked a number of questions it would be hard for a scammer to know. I passed the test and they released the block.

That sounds like a positive thing. Do you know who put the block on your card? Was it Lifelock or the credit card company?

p.s. I hope you answered those questions out of earshot of anyone at the car dealership.

Sorry, I made a mistake. They didn't block the credit card, they blocked the ability to apply for credit without knowing the secret words. LifeLock did the block. I believe you can arrange that yourself somehow.
