> SSN and DOB data is widely available for sale in the cybercrime underground on almost all U.S. citizens. This has been the reality for years, and was so well before Equifax announced its big 2017 breach.
Again, I find that this only reinforces the fact that SSNs are not a useful identification system because there's nothing secure about them. Can someone explain where attackers obtain SSN/DOB data with such a widespread success rate?
