San Francisco City Attorney Dennis Herrera filed a lawsuit on Tuesday against Equifax, the credit reporting firm which suffered a massive data breach affecting personal identifying information of 143 million people — more than half the country's adult population.

The city attorney's office said in a notice that the lawsuit was filed against Equifax for failing to protect the personal data of more than 15 million Californians. That data included details such as Social Security numbers, names and birth dates.
