About
My name is GhostExodus. I'm a former black hat computer hacker and insider threat. I’m also the founder and leader of the hacking collective, the Electronik Tribulation Army.
In 2009, I was arrested for installing malicious code on healthcare systems. Upon conviction, I became the first person in recent US history ever to be convicted for corrupting industrial control systems and ultimately served nearly 11 years in federal prison.
I became a two-time fugitive and attempted to flee the country. I broke into a US Customs-controlled shipyard and blackmailed the captain of a cargo ship into taking me to Nigeria after discovering that they were disabling their AIS tracking beacon while in international waters.
Fast forward to the present day, I work as a contributor at Cybernews, and as a humanitarian activist for the Coalition for Civil Freedoms. I am a cybersecurity researcher and I use my experiences as a former threat actor and hacker to bring awareness to security risks.
