Ex-Cisco Engineer Sentenced to 2 Years in Prison for Hacking

Sudhish Kasaba Ramesh, 31, pleaded guilty to one charge of intentionally accessing a protected computer without authorization and recklessly causing damage. After he left Cisco, he regained access to the company’s cloud infrastructure on Amazon Web Services and deleted over 450 virtual machines, prosecutors say. The wiping of these virtual machines affected about 16,000 Webex accounts over a two-week period, which forced Cisco to restore part of its cloud infrastructure and then refund over $1 million to the affected customers.”]
