Man hacks Disney, pleads to charges

A California man named within the article pleaded guilty to multiple charges recently after being picked up.

He apparently tricked multiple victims with an AI tool which in fact was something to gain him access to the system.

After gaining access to Disney, the perpetrator stole and published information after the employee failed to comply to demands.

A California man has pleaded guilty to hacking Disney via a fake artificial intelligence (AI) platform that promised to generate AI art. Instead, it ran malicious software, allowing the hacker to steal terabytes of confidential data.

Ryan Mitchell Kramer, 25, has pleaded guilty to hacking Disney’s systems. Kramer managed to steal 1.1TB of data from the mass media and entertainment company via a malicious platform that promised to generate AI art.

From the bottom paragraph which ends it all,

Kramer entered a plea agreement and has been charged with one count of accessing a computer and harvesting information, and one count of threatening to damage a protected computer, the Department of Justice (DoJ) has revealed.

The suspect even admitted that others fell to the scheme, which doesn’t help his cause any, but admitting may give him leniency because he’s telling people what they already knew as part of the case.

I don’t believe it says where in California this suspect is, but this is another suspect off the streets.

Man hacks Disney employee, stealing 1.1TB of company data is the article.

Have fun with this one.
