Hopefully its not endless. I kind of view these attacks as forced penetration testing of sloppy companies. They may not have been hired or perform their work legally, but hopefully their work results in changes similar to legal penetration testers. Also, the more that these attacks happen, the more that insurance companies will begin to increase premiums and the more that they will push back on companies that practice sloppy security. It may be painful in the near term, but hopefully these attacks are a net good in the long term.

- phone8675309 5y agoYeah, my free credit monitoring offer ended and now I have to pay to continue using it. Great marketing, Equifax - they created the problem and tried to sell you the fix.

- bostonsre 5y agoMaybe they have slightly better security? Or hopefully at least they patched the one flaw that was used to get in.
