Former Uber security chief found guilty of hiding 2016 data breach from authorities
In 2016, while the Federal Trade Commission was investigating Uber over an earlier breach of its online systems, Sullivan learned of a new breach that affected the Uber accounts of more than 57 million riders and drivers. The jury found Sullivan guilty on one count of obstructing the FTC's investigation and one count of misprision, or acting to conceal a felony from authorities.
