**[Experian plc](https://www.directorstalkinterviews.com/ftse-company/experian-plc/expn.l)**(
LON:EXPN) has announced that following recent media reports concerning data which
is being illegally offered for sale on the internet, some of which may have been
sourced from Serasa’s non-sensitive marketing data, Experian is continuing to carry
out a detailed forensic investigation. We will provide further updates as appropriate,
thus far we know the following:

·       The data offered includes photographs, social security INSS, vehicle registrations
and social media login details, which Serasa does not collect or hold.

·       There is no evidence that positive or negative credit data has been illegally
obtained from Serasa.

·       In spite of exhaustive investigations to date there is no evidence that 
our technology systems have been compromised.

Protecting the security of data is Experian’s number one priority and is an obligation
we take extremely seriously.
