Massive leak exposes data on 123 million US households
“An unsecured database contained a wide range of personal details about virtually every American household, researchers say.
The repository contained massive data sets belonging to Alteryx partner Experian, a consumer credit reporting agency that competes with Equifax, and the US Census Bureau, researchers said. Alteryx apparently purchased the data from Experian’s ConsumerView marketing database, a product sold to other companies that contains a combination of publicly available information and more personal data.”
