Gucci hacker sentenced

A disgruntled former employee of Gucci faces up to six years in prison, and a minimum of two, for hacking into the company’s computers and causing US$200,000 of damage, through lost time and resources.

The 35-year old computer engineer, who had previously been fired for unrelated reasons, hacked into the company’s email servers, erasing files and causing Gucci America’s email system to crash in November 2010.
