Security failings

A security breach in 2010 resulted in nearly 200,000 customers' data being stolen. A lawsuit followed by Digital River.

In October 2017, the websites for Equifax, and for TransUnion's Central American division, were reported to have been redirecting visitors to websites that attempted drive-by downloads of malware disguised as Adobe Flash updates. The attack had been performed by hijacking third-party analytics JavaScript from Digital River brand FireClick.
