A laptop containing Equifax employee names and Social Security numbers was stolen from a worker traveling in London.
The May 29 theft affects nearly all of the Atlanta-based company’s nearly 2,500 U.S. employees, aside from those hired in roughly the last two months, spokesman David Rubinger said.
Personal data of millions of consumers who obtain credit scores from Equifax were not compromised, Rubinger said. Equifax employs about 4,600 people worldwide.
