UK Man Sentenced for 2015 TalkTalk Hack

A U.K. man sentenced to four years in jail for his role in several cybercrimes. Daniel Kelley pleaded guilty to 11 charges in 2016, including the October 2015 TalkTalk hack. Kelley admitted to blackmailing TalkTalk and four other organizations, hacking TalkTalk, his former school and converting proceeds of blackmail from a victim, authorities said. Kelley will serve his prison time at a young offenders institute because he was a teenager at the time these attacks took place. The attack cost TalkTalk about 77 million ($99 million), authorities previously said.”]
