California Attorney General Xavier Becerra, leading a multistate coalition of all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico, announced a settlement with Equifax over a 2017 data breach that exposed personal information of 147 million consumers, including 15 million Californians. The breach resulted from Equifax’s failure to apply a critical software patch and implement adequate security measures, with disclosure delayed for months after discovery. Equifax will pay $175 million in state penalties, up to $425 million in consumer restitution, and implement enhanced data security measures and ten years of free credit monitoring for affected consumers.
