Hector Xavier Monsegur was sentenced to seven months in prison today for 12 counts of computer hacking conspiracies and related crimes. He helped the FBI stop or mitigate roughly 300 cyber attacks estimated at millions of dollars of potential loss. His work with the feds resulted in the prosecution and conviction of eight members of LulzSec, including Jeremy Hammond, who was recently sentenced to 120 months. Sabu’s sentencing has been delayed multiple times over the past three years, so today’s hearing had long been anticipated.”]
