ISOL 536 – Residency Project
Equifax is one of the three major credit bureau that stores personal and business credit
profile information1. Organizations rely on Equifax credit data in order to make pertinent
financial lending decisions. In 2017, Equifax revealed that a data breach exposed the sensitive
personal information of 143 million Americans2.
In 2018, Equifax budgeted to spend $200 million on security and technology projects for
the year3.
In this case study, assume that you work for an Information Technology Security firm in Atlanta
and your company has been hired to provide a threat model of Equifax consumer and business
data and provide remediation to address the security issue.
