Former Equifax CEO Richard Smith testified before a Senate Judiciary subcommittee on his former employer’s response to a data breach that left more than 140 million consumers with their personal financial information at risk of theft. Most of the subcommittee’s inquiries focused on Equifax’s knowledge and subsequent response to the infiltration of its data servers.

Between Mr. Smith’s testimony and the second panel, the subcommittee took a break to vote on the Senate floor.

When the hearing resumed, two computer science and cybersecurity professors testified and answered a series of questions about the appropriateness of Equifax’s response to the data breach.

This was the third of four congressional hearings Mr. Smith was scheduled to testify at in a week’s time. close
