Former Ubiquiti employee charged with stealing data and extorting company
Mr. Sharp is apparently not so sharp. He carried out the attack from his home network. He connected directly for enough time that his bare IP was logged. The rest of the time, he carried out the attack using a commercially purchased VPN solution that was trivial to trace back to him via the purchase record. He lied to the FBI. (I have yet to understand why people talk to law enforcement instead of staying silent so as to not implicate themselves.) And, for no apparently good reason (meaning, there&#x27;s no claim of him shorting the stock), after the raid, he seeded fake news that drove the company&#x27;s stock down 20%.
