"U.S. Catches Kremlin Insider Who May Have Secrets of 2016 Hack: IT executive Vladislav Klyushin’s journey into U.S. custody is a blow to the Kremlin, say people familiar with a Russian intelligence assessment of what he may have to offer" - SCW Newswatch: Bloomberg
Bloomberg reports on the extradition from Switzerland to the United States of Russian tech tycoon Vladislav Klyushin, the highest-level Kremlin insider falling into the hands of U.S. law enforcement in recent history. Within the past two years, Putin awarded Klyushin a medal of honor. In his U.S. prosecution, Klyushin is accused of hacking corporate-earnings information then using it to engage in insider trading, illegally making tens of millions of dollars. His cybersecurity work and ties to the upper echelons of Russian government could make him a useful information source.
