On July 22, 2019, Equifax agreed to pay around $700 million to settle with the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and New York State Department of financial services (DFS) for the 2017 data breach that jeopardized sensitive information from nearly 150 million Americans. This will be the largest settlement ever paid for a data breach, almost twice the cost of the Target Breach in 2013.
For the first 15 years of my career I was fortunate enough to have worked for some of the most trusted services organizations in the world, Fujitsu, BBC, CapGemini and Deloitte.
