A federal grand jury has indicted Albert Gonzales, 28, of Miami, Florida, for allegedly hacking into computers belonging to retail and financial companies and stealing more than 130 million credit and debit cards. The U.S. Department of Justice says the indictment represents the largest data breach indictment ever brought in the United States. The defendants face a possible sentence of up to 35 years in prison and either $1 million or twice any ill-gotten gains in fines if convicted. The indictment claims Gonzales and alleged co-conspirators used sophisticated techniques to avoid detection.”]
