Jonathan James

James's major intrusions targeted high-profile organizations. He installed a backdoor into a Defense Threat Reduction Agency server. The DTRA is an agency of the Department of Defense charged with reducing the threat to the U.S. and its allies from nuclear, biological, chemical, conventional and special weapons. The backdoor he created enabled him to view sensitive emails and capture employee usernames and passwords.

James also cracked into NASA computers, stealing software worth approximately $1.7 million. According to the Department of Justice, "The software supported the International Space Station's physical environment, including control of the temperature and humidity within the living space." NASA was forced to shut down its computer systems, ultimately racking up a $41,000 cost. James explained that he downloaded the code to supplement his studies on C programming, but contended, "The code itself was crappy . . . certainly not worth $1.7 million like they claimed."

Sorry but everyone else thinks that people like derektrotter, or elite mossy are hackers. They are not. They are modders/scripters. They didnt hack into anything. James did. you cant get a XBOX HACKER that would involve using a xbox to hack something, Hacking is gaining unauthorized access to something that potentially can get you the jail. Modding, Doesnt get you the jail (Xbox, ps3 modding)

Wow!NASA really?

No i wrote nasa for the fun of it.
