As enterprises continue to shift their operations to the browser, security teams face a growing set of cyber challenges.

A 20-year-old member of the notorious cybercrime gang known as Scattered Spider has been sentenced to ten years in prison in the U.S. in connection with a series of major hacks and cryptocurrency thefts.

News of Urban's sentencing was reported by Bloomberg and Jacksonville news outlet News4JAX.
