SC's Data Security Company Also Got Hacked - FITSNews: South Carolinians by the tens of thousands are signing up with Experian – one of the nation’s largest credit reporting firms – to protect their data in the wake of an unprecedented security breach at the S.C. Department of Revenue (SCDOR). In fact the state of South Carolina is paying (up to $12 million) to cover the costs associated with this protection – even though Experian is likely to make millions in recurring business off of the deal.
But will such a move do anything to make our state’s data safer?
