A college student created the largest botnet in history and brought down Netflix, Twitter, Reddit, and Spotify simultaneously. The Mirai botnet infected 600,000 IoT devices and launched a 1.2 terabit-per-second attack - the biggest DDoS in history. He extorted companies for Bitcoin and made $180,000. When the FBI found him in his Rutgers dorm room, his sentence shocked everyone.
The cyberattack that changed internet security forever. The source code is still public today.
