First American Financial Corporation is another company that appears to have been extremely naive about securing non-public personal information and didn't act until their customers went public. That wasn't even a platform security vulnerability. They were allowing unauthenticated access to their customers documents. Brian Krebs reported on 24 May that 885 million mortgage documents had been exposed. According to First American's reporting since then, they say they have narrowed that down to 32 consumers that had their information exposed and provided them with complementary credit monitoring. That's an awfully big discrepancy between the security community and company reporting.
