One of those responsible for massive Mirai-based DDoS attack in October 2016 has pleaded guilty to federal charges. The individual, who was not named due to being a juvenile when the offense was committed, pleaded guilty Wednesday to committing acts of federal juvenile delinquency related to committing computer fraud and abuse by operating a botnet and by intentionally damaging a computer. Sony reported a loss of $2.7 million due to the attack, according to the Justice Department. The largest such attack on record – at 2.3TB per second – took place earlier this year.”]
