In one ‘brute force’ attack, a hacker was arrested last week and charged with breaking into 50 government data bases and trying to sell the information, reports Cointelegraph, citing Ukraine’s cyber police. Photos publicizing the arrest show a screen shot of a Skype conversation where he was apparently trying to sell personal information to a Russian buyer for 6.5 Rubles, or 9 US cents, for one entry.
