A US appeals court has deemed the sentence of Paige Thompson, the hacker behind the 2019 Capital One data breach, too lenient, overruling her five years’ probation. The breach affected around 100 million Americans and resulted in significant financial damages for Capital One, including an $80 million fine and $190 million in lawsuits. The case is now set for resentencing, with the court emphasizing that Thompson's actions were not merely "misguided" and that her personal circumstances should not solely dictate her punishment.
