Defense Contractor Pleads Guilty to Selling Zero-Days
🛡️ The former general manager of L3Harris cyber-division Trenchant, Australian national Peter Williams, pleaded guilty in a US district court to stealing and selling zero-day exploit components to a Russian cyber broker. Prosecutors allege he exfiltrated at least eight exploit components via encrypted channels in exchange for millions in cryptocurrency and follow-on support payments. Authorities say the code could be worth tens of millions and that the broker’s clients include the Russian government, creating a national security threat. Williams faces up to 20 years in prison and significant fines.
