A student hired hackers to attack schools of the West Ada school district

An Eagle High School student may be charged with a felony after being accused of a cyber attack on the West Ada school district. The 17-year old boy, whose name cannot be disclosed because he is a minor, has hired hackers to coordinate an attack against his school and other 50 institutes. The sheriffs office has no doubts, the teenager hired someone to flood the system with malicious traffic. The attack lasted an entire week blocking the access to online classes and textbooks, at the same time students lost all their work.”]
