  trust.equifax.com is a CNAME to equifax.portals.safebase.io (dig, 2026-09-06) — a
  SafeBase-hosted trust center.

  Both https://trust.equifax.com/ and the underlying https://equifax.portals.safebase.io/
  answered HTTP 403 with a Cloudflare "Just a moment..." interstitial to every request
  this pipeline made, including with a browser User-Agent. The portal demonstrably exists;
  we did not evade the challenge, so the certification list BEHIND it is not recorded here.
  Only certifications Equifax states on pages we could actually read are listed below.
description: >-
  Equifax operates a SafeBase trust center at trust.equifax.com and publishes an annual
  Security Annual Report plus a public security controls framework on GitHub. A separate
  portal, securityreports.equifax.com, distributes security reports but is login-walled to
  approved Equifax business users.
certifications:
  - name: FedRAMP
    status: Ready for Agency Authorization

    quote: '"FedRAMP Ready for Agency Authorization"'

  - name: third-party certifications and authorizations (aggregate)
    count: 52
    status: claimed
    evidence: https://www.equifax.com/about-equifax/security/
    quote: >-
      "52 Certifications and authorizations obtained from outside auditors, validating our
      depth and rigor"
    note: >-
      Equifax states the COUNT but does not enumerate the 52 on this page. The individual
      certificates are presumably behind the trust center and securityreports portal. Not
      itemised here because we could not read them.
