If you live in the U.S. and breathe oxygen, there's a good chance you may be impacted by the latest security breach.

Equifax (EFX) revealed Thursday that the personal information of as many as 143 million Americans -- or nearly half the country -- has been compromised.

Beyond the number of people potentially impacted, the credit reporting firm's cybersecurity breach is significant because of the sensitive information at risk: social security numbers, addresses and the numbers of some driver's licenses.
