In 2017, the third largest consumer credit agency in the world was victim of one of the largest ever data breaches on record. In this week's Data Radio Show, Ignition's Julien Redmond talks with Equifax's Bob Sparshatt about what happened, what was learned and how it impacted the wider publics's understanding of what data is held on them.
