    Yeah this is why you fire people after you have changed their login credentials.

      Oof

      Following his dismissal, Brody allegedly refused to return his work laptop and instead used his still-valid account to access the bank’s computer network and cause damages estimated to be above $220,000

      Also

      Impersonated another cloud engineer at FRB to access the firm’s network and make configuration changes

      I can see this at a mid size startup or enterprise, but a bank?

        2 years for 220k damage? Isn’t that basically what he earns in two years, so he could pay it back in five?

          i could see it as a difficult thing to get hired in the same position after burning things down when leaving.
