>Equifax said that, it had hired a cybersecurity firm to conduct a review to determine the scale of the invasion. I think most people are unaware of the depth of data Equifax has on them, beyond simple credit scores (e.g. health information). Which makes the above quote from the article even more unconscionable. There should be no need for an outside firm to figure out what happened. They should have in-house expertise that is unmatched (although third-party audits ahead of time would be wise).
