BOSTON — Convicted TJX hacker Albert Gonzalez was sentenced to 20 years
in prison on Thursday for leading a gang of cyberthieves who stole more
than 90 million credit and debit card numbers from TJX and other
retailers. The sentence for the largest computer-crime case ever prosecuted is the
lengthiest ever imposed in the United States for hacking or
identity-theft. <div id="TixyyLink" style="overflow: hidden; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: transparent; text-align: left; text-decoration: none; border: medium none;"><br>Read More <a href="http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/03/tjx-sentencing/#ixzz0jE1QpB3a">http://www.wired.com/threatlevel/2010/03/tjx-sentencing/#ixzz0jE1QpB3a</a><br>
