Chemical company spills the data

It took a mere four months of contemplation for NTIC to inform people that their names, Social Security numbers, and driver's license numbers were stolen by the Chaos ransomware gang. Our friends at this chemicals firm lost 400 gigabytes of data back in February, because why rush the bad news? Shielding ourselves from having our entire identities sold on the dark web apparently requires organizations to defend their networks before the horses have bolted. But surely, a delayed notification letter and some free credit monitoring will fix everything.
