Satori Botnet Co-Creator Pleads Guilty

Kenneth Currin Schuchman, 21, pleads guilty to aiding and abetting computer intrusions. Satori botnet was used to wage several large-scale distributed denial-of-service attacks. Botnet was based on a variant of Mirai malware, which was used in numerous attacks. Prosecutors say he and his co-creators attempted to make money off these botnets by renting out its capabilities to others, accepting payment in bitcoin or through a PayPal account. A sentencing date has not yet been set.”]
