Equifax’s Breach of Trust
Earlier this semester, we analyzed and applied ethical challenges from Vallor’s list of the “Ten Ethical Challenges” to the Equifax Data Breach.
For Case Response Paper 3, we will examine the Equifax Data Breach and its impact on trust using another case from Ethics Unwrapped at the McCombs School of Business, University of Texas at https://ethicsunwrapped.utexas.edu/case-studies.
In this case, we will focus on Trust and Privacy issues. Although the security incident itself is an important area to examine, we will delve more into how Equifax and its leadership did not handle many of the trust and privacy challenges well. Framing much of our study using the concept of loss aversion, as well as pertinent ethical theories, we will extend our analysis beyond Equifax to another company.

You can use many of these as resources for the Equifax discussion. However, you will need to find additional articles for responses to questions 5, 6, and 7 in particular.
In Section1 of the paper, answer Discussion Questions 1-4 using supported academic arguments at https://ethicsunwrapped.utexas.edu/video/equifaxs-breach-of-trust#video-section-4.
In Section2 of the paper, answer Discussion Questions 5-7 using supported academic arguments at https://ethicsunwrapped.utexas.edu/video/equifaxs-breach-of-trust#video-section-4.
In Section3 of the paper, answer Discussion Questions 8 & 10 using supported academic arguments at https://ethicsunwrapped.utexas.edu/video/equifaxs-breach-of-trust#video-section-4.
Please note the following:
Make sure to use headings of Section1, Section2, and Section3 in the paper.
Number all responses by question number.
Make sure to answer all parts of each question.
Pay particular attention to key words in the questions. For example some questions require responses within a loss aversion context.
Remember to follow the General Response Paper Guidelines.
Use headings and sub-headings to organize your paper. At a minimum, we need three (3) section headings and each question number should be a sub-heading. This is in addition to an Introduction and Conclusion section for five (5) total headings.
