advertising our consumer business in the U. S.  in September 2017.
We resumed advertising our U. S.  paid products in the fourth quarter of 2018.
As part of our response to the 2017 cybersecurity incident, we made our TrustedID?
Premier service, an identity theft protection and credit file monitoring product, available for free to all U. S.  consumers for twelve months for those who signed up by January 31, 2018.
In late 2018, the Company extended the free credit file monitoring services for impacted consumers in the U. S.  using the free TrustedID Premier?
service by providing them the opportunity to enroll in Experian?
IDNotify?
at no cost for an additional twelve months.
Similarly, for impacted consumers in Canada and the U. K. , we provided free credit reports and scores, credit monitoring and identity theft protection for twenty four months.
As part of our commitment to providing long-term resources and protections for consumers, in January 2018, the Company introduced Lock & Alert?, a mobile application enabled service that allows U. S.  consumers to quickly lock and unlock their Equifax credit report for free, for life.
Geographic Information.
We currently have operations in the following countries: Argentina, Australia, Canada, Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, Honduras, India, Mexico, New Zealand, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, the Republic of Ireland, Spain, the U. K. , Uruguay and the U. S.  We also offer Equifax branded credit services in India and Russia through joint ventures, we have investments in consumer and/or commercial credit information companies through joint ventures in Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore and the United Arab Emirates, and have an investment in a consumer and commercial credit information company in Brazil.
Approximately 71% our revenue was generated in the U. S.  during both of the twelve months ended December 31, 2018 and 2017.
Key Performance Indicators.
Management focuses on a variety of key indicators to monitor operating and financial performance.
These performance indicators include measurements of operating revenue, change in operating revenue, operating income, operating margin, net income, diluted earnings per share, cash provided by operating activities and capital expenditures.
Key performance indicators for the twelve months ended December 31, 2018, 2017 and 2016, include the following:
## Table 0 ##
*Amounts above include accruals for capital expenditures.
Business Environment and Company Outlook Demand for our services tends to be correlated to general levels of economic activity and to consumer credit activity, small commercial credit and marketing activity.
Demand is also enhanced by our initiatives to expand our products, capabilities, and markets served.
In the United States, we expect 2019 economic activity, as measured by GDP, to be down from the levels seen in the second half of 2018.
We expect modest growth in consumer credit, excluding mortgage, over the course of 2019.
U. S.  Mortgage market originations are expected to be much weaker in the first half of 2019 and down for the full year of 2019 versus 2018.
We anticipate 2019 economic activity, as measured by GDP, in Canada to be slightly below the levels seen in the second half of 2018.
In Australia, as measured by GDP, we anticipate 2019 economic activity to be below the levels seen in the second half of 2018 due to overall weakness in consumer credit markets.
In the European markets we serve, the U. K. , Spain and Portugal, we are expecting 2019 economic activity, as measured by GDP, to be at or slightly below the levels in 2018.
In Latin America, our two largest markets are in Argentina and Chile.
In Argentina, the market weakened significantly in 2018.
We are expecting continued weakness in 2019 but at lower levels than in 2018.
In Chile, we are expecting economic activity in 2019 to be down slightly compared to 2018.
Operating Expenses
## Table 1 ##
Cost of Services.
?Cost of services increased $229.7 million in 2018 compared to 2017.
We incurred increased incremental technology and data security costs of $146.5 million in 2018.
These increased technology and security costs predominantly reflect the investments we are making in our technology transformation, which include costs for enhanced data security.
We expect these incremental costs as well as increased ongoing technology and security costs to continue in 2019 and 2020.
The remaining increase is due to increased people and royalty costs.
The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates reduced cost of services by $6.4 million.
Cost of services increased $97.3 million in 2017 compared to 2016.
The increase in cost of services, when compared to 2016, was due to the increase in production costs driven by higher revenues, as well as increases of $14.2 million in professional services related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident and in people costs.
The effect of changes in foreign exchange rates reduced cost of services by $2.1 million.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses.
?Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $181.3 million in 2018 as compared to 2017.
We incurred increased incremental technology and data security costs of $160.7 million in 2018.
As was the case in cost of services, these increased technology and security costs predominately reflect the investments we are making in our technology transformation, which include costs for enhanced data security.
We expect these incremental costs as well as increased ongoing technology and security costs to continue in 2019 and 2020.
Related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident, we incurred net costs of $19.0 million in 2018.
We incurred legal and investigative fees of $73.6 million, and decreased costs to fulfill and support the free credit monitoring service provided to eligible consumers of $20.4 million.
Additionally, we benefited from the recognition of insurance proceeds of $75.0 million to offset these costs in 2018, versus the $50.0 million of insurance proceeds recorded in 2017.
The remaining changes were driven by increases due to the restructuring charge of $46.1 million, people, the public records litigation settlement of $18.5 million, and insurance costs which were partially offset by decreased advertising costs.
The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates decreased our selling, general and administrative expenses by $10.2 million.
Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $91.0 million in 2017 as compared to 2016.
?The increase was due to $99.8 million of costs related to the 2017 cybersecurity incident, higher occupancy and people costs, partially offset by a decline in Veda integration and transaction costs.
The impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates decreased our selling, general and administrative expenses by $2.2 million.
Depreciation and Amortization.
?Depreciation and amortization expense for 2018 increased by $22.6 million.
The increase is due to amortization of capitalized internal-use software and system costs and depreciation of production equipment, partially offset by a decrease in amortization of purchased intangibles.
Depreciation and amortization expense for 2017 increased by $22.4 million primarily due to increased depreciation due to increased capital expenditures.
