‘Insult’ by employer drives techie to delete server data

The cyber police at BKC on Friday arrested a 32-year-old system administrator for allegedly hacking into his former employer’s server and deleted important confidential files. The accused Sameer Kadam (name changed) committed the offence reportedly to take revenge for an insult by his employer. Cyber police found out that Kadam had also decrypted the server (process of decoding data that has been encrypted into a secret format).
