All news with #scattered spider tag

🔒 A 20-year-old Florida man, Noah Michael Urban, was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison and ordered to pay about $13 million in restitution after pleading guilty to wire fraud and conspiracy. Prosecutors say Urban acted with members of Scattered Spider, using SIM-swapping and SMS phishing to divert calls and one-time codes and to phish employees into fake Okta pages. The campaign compromised access at more than 130 firms and enabled thefts of proprietary data and millions in cryptocurrency.
