Just make sure you don't enroll in their monitoring. If you do, it waives your right to sue them in court.

3 peeps sold $1.7 million in shares.

Haven't seen this on other places yet, but Equifax's website about potential impact may be BS.

Equifax stored customer data in plain text while corporate information was encrypted. CEO knew of the breach days before sending a team to investigate. He also waited nearly a month to request an update from the investigation. Security reviews were revealed to be scheduled on a quarterly basis.

Surprised the deloitte breach hasn't been mentioned.

http://www.slate.com/blogs/future_te...overnment.html

A security breach at Deloitte, a major accounting and consulting firm, may be much more serious than the company admits. Deloitte previously said on Sept. 25 that “very few clients” had been affected by a hack into its email platform, which began in fall 2016 and was uncovered in March 2017. The company has claimed that, after an internal review, only six clients were found to have been compromised.

Yet the Guardian reported Tuesday, based on information from anonymous sources, that the affected server housed emails exchanged with about 350 clients, many of them high-profile. That group includes the U.S. departments of defense, state, energy, and homeland security, along with the National Institutes of Health, the U.S. Postal Service, and major companies like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The server also contained emails to or from unnamed global banks, airlines, car manufacturers, energy companies, and pharmaceutical manufacturers.
