Yahoo and Equifax say data breaches at their organizations were even bigger than first thought. Yahoo’s parent company Verizon on Tuesday said an August 2013 breach that Yahoo disclosed in Dec. 2016 impacted a mind-boggling three billion email accounts. Equifax said that the actual number of people impacted by the breach it disclosed on Sept. 7 was 145.5 million, or 2 million more than the number it had first reported. The data that was stolen did not include clear text passwords, payment card data, or bank account information.”]
