Credit Karma operates a website and mobile applications which allow consumers to access credit scores and credit reports.
The FTC complaint alleged that they engaged in deceptive practices because, despite their claim that they had implemented reasonable and appropriate measures to protect consumers identity, data, and privacy, they failed to do such, such as by transmitting consumers sensitive information over insecure SSL connections, failing to validate SSL certificates, and storing authentication token and passcodes in an insecure manner, potentially allowing attackers to redirect and intercept network traffic to decrypt and alter transmitted information including social security numbers, birth dates, and credit report information.

TRENDnet is a retailer that sells Internet Protocol cameras, routers, modems, and networking devices.
The FTC complaint alleged that they engaged in unfair and deceptive acts or practices because, despite their claim that they had implemented reasonable measures to ensure their IP cameras and mobile apps were a secure way to monitor consumers' homes and workplaces, the Direct Video Stream Authentication setting of their cameras did not function properly and allowed all users live feeds to be publicly accessible, leading to hackers exploiting this vulnerability and posting the live feeds of 700 of TrendNet’s cameras.
