Former Equifax CEO Richard Smith is set to head to Capitol Hill this morning for U.S. lawmakers’ first hearing into a massive security breach at the company that has affected roughly 145 million Americans.

Smith, who retired from the credit-reporting agency last week, plans to accept responsibility for the incident, which compromised consumers’ names addresses, brith dates and Social Security numbers, and for some, their credit-card data, too. And he’ll acknowledge in testimony that Equifax “failed to prevent sensitive information from falling into the hands of wrongdoers.”
