Former Worker Sentenced for Wrecking Servers

Priyavrat Patel, 42, is sentenced to six months in prison, followed by three years of supervised release. Prosecutors say he deliberately deleted critical files used by the servers during boot-up. The attack crippled Pratt-Read operations for two weeks, forcing the company to use paper records for a portion of that time.
