Equifax Breach Response Turns Dumpster Fire
- nodesocket 9y agoWhoever said knowledge is power had it wrong. More like knowledge is terrifying. equifaxsecurity2017.com is running Wordpress, which I'm sure is vulnerable in some sort of way. The check form is literally a marketing tactic to sign up for some 3rd party monitoring service. I used last name Smith and a random series of 6 digits for a social security number and was greeted with: Thank You Your enrollment date for TrustedID Premier is: 09/14/2017 Please be sure to mark your calendar as you will not receive additional reminders. On or after your enrollment date, please return to faq.trustedidpremier.com and click the link to continue through the enrollment process. Equifax security and negligence is borderline criminal.
