because equifax disclosed it. i'm not in position to clarify anything. the folks who leaked the inaccurate information knew that. all i said was i encourage folks to look at the 10k filing that will come at the end of the first quarter. and when equifax filed their 10k, they once again disclosed the fact they were being investigated by the bureau of consumer financial protection. most of what you said is wrong. it's not your fault because it's the media. >> i assume you're disturbed like the rest of us. about what's been found and the millions of people whose lives were effected. >> again, i was one of those folks but i do not comment on ongoing investigations. >> if we could switch gears quickly. prior to taking over the cfpb the agency was proactively protecting first responders. the director was making sure first responders awaiting payments from the 9/11 thon weren't being scammed. people moving rubble and helping those injured, helping our country recover after a terrorist attack. now there's one company trying to take advantage of heroes and scam t

i think that the poster child for that is the equifax breach where there was a software vulnerability that they knew about and they failed to patch it allowing hackers to steal sensitive information about millions of americans, this morning, there was another revelation that some thousands of people's passport information was also compromised in that breach. what i would like to ask the penlists is, what are the main factors that contribute to these kinds of security failures, is it just not paying enough attention to security? is it not having the in place?not having the in is it not committing enough resources to it? what's the problem? sure. so i think you're absolutely right, a lot of the data breaches we hear about are completely avoidable, ex fax is a good example of that. you hear lots of cases about someone had a laptop unencrypted in the back of the car that got stolen. for me from the policy perspective the key is the lack of incentives. they just don't bear the cost of data security in a lot of cases. in some cases data beach notification might be triggered and that's annoy
