Canadian Hacker Jailed for 5 Years Following Yahoo Breach

He admitted to working for alleged Russian intelligence officers tied to massive Yahoo breach of search giant Yahoo. The sentence is “far less then we requested and expected and far better than the 20 to 30 years-plus he could’ve faced,” his attorney tells ISMG. Three Russian citizens have been charged with helping the FSB hack into Yahoo accounts from 2014 to 2016.”]
