The Office of Personnel Management faces the daunting task of trying to make victims of its data breaches whole. Altogether there are more than 22 million people whose sensitive information was compromised in the hacks on OPM's personnel and security clearance systems. Alan Lopatin is the chairman of the Federal Postal Coalition whose member groups represent about five million federal employees and retirees. He tells Federal News Radio's Emily Kopp why he's advocating for more protection for data breach victims even before the latest details came to light.
