in prison. At the time, it was the longest U.S. sentence ever given for
hacking.
6.Jonathan
Between June and October of 1999, one of the most incredible episodes
in the history of the computer crimes was carried out. The United States
Department of Defense (DOD) discovered a number of intrusions to private
companies, school systems, as well as DOD itself and even NASA. The
interesting thing about all this is that these intrusions were the work
of a young man of just 15 years of age.Jonathan Joseph James is part of
the history books as the first cracker (which for practical purposes we
will refer to him as a ‘hacker’) under age in being sentenced for cyber
crimes in the United States. This is his story.A native of the city of
Miami, Jonathan James, who operated under the pseudonym of ‘C0mrade’, is
considered one of the greatest hackers in history, thanks to his great
ability to access private systems for entertainment. Between June 29 and
30, Jonathan managed to break NASA security and access 13 computers from

8.Jeremy Hammond
A famed hacker who has been serving a 10-year prison sentence since 2012
was accused by a guard at a federal detention center of “minor assault,”
landing the so-called hacktivist in solitary confinement, according to
advocates. The guard at Michigan’s Federal Correctional Institute-Milan
made the accusation against Jeremy Hammond — the activist associated
with hacking groups Anonymous and LulzSec and best know for hacking
private intelligence firm Stratfor and leaking documents to WikiLeaks —
on either November 19 or 20. Hammond has been held in solitary
confinement ever since, according to the Jeremy Hammond Support Network.
The guard claims that Hammond hit him with a door, “stood his ground,”
and pushed his shoulder into the guard. The head of Hammond’s support
network said the prison guard’s account is an overblown. “Jeremy says
that he was exiting his unit through a door that has no windows and
could not see the guard on the other side, and as he’s exiting, bumped
the guard with the door,” Grace North told The Intercept. “The guard
immediately grabbed Jeremy and threw him up against the wall and dragged
him down to solitary, with no handcuffs, without calling for backup,
which is against prison protocol, and Jeremy has been there ever since.”
9.Mafia Boy
The 17-year-old computer hacker responsible for denial-of-service attacks
that crippled several Web sites last year has been sentenced to eight
months in a juvenile detention center. Montreal Judge Gilles Ouellet
yesterday said the youth, who was 15 at the time of the incidents,
committed a crime when he brought down the Internet sites of Amazon.com
Inc., eBay Inc., Yahoo Inc., CNN.com, Dell Computer Corp. and others in
February 2000. The teen, who goes by the Internet nickname "Mafiaboy," was
also sentenced to serve a year of probation after his detention ends, said
Montreal prosecutor Louis Miville-Deschenes. In January, the teenager
pleaded guilty to more than 50 charges related to the attacks and one
charge of violating the terms of his bail (see story), according to
Miville-Deschenes.The maximum sentence he could have received was two
years in custody. Miville-Deschenes said he had asked the judge to
sentence the youth to a year in the juvenile detention center, which is a
locked facility. He said the defense attorney had asked for no jail time.
"I'm very happy with the sentence," Miville-Deschenes said, adding that
the sentence should serve as a deterrent to other teenage hackers.
Miville-Deschenes said that as part of the sentence, Mafiaboy is forbidden
from profiting in any way from the incident until he has served his
probation.Mafiaboy is also prohibited from possessing any software that's
not commercially available; he can't use the Internet to talk with any
other hacker; and he's banned from hacking into any other sites. He also
must inform law enforcement authorities of the name of his Internet
service provider.Miville-Deschenes said the youth is required to donate
$250 to a Montreal charity for violating the terms of his bail, which said
he had to attend school and be on his best behavior. The prosecutor said
Mafiaboy had been suspended from school, which violated his bail
provisions.
