16 YEARS OLD AUSTRALIAN BOY HACKED APPLE'S NETWORK MULTIPLE TIMES, ACCESSED 90GB WORTH OF FILES


16 years old hacker from Australia allegedly broke into the almighty Apple's computer system and may have downloaded some internal files.

The Age newspaper reports that the teenager stored the documents in a folder called "hacky hack hack".
Apple insists that no customer data was compromised, but the Age reports that the boy has accessed customers accounts.

In a statement to the BBC, Apple said: "We vigilantly protect our networks and have dedicated teams of information security professionals that work to detect and respond to threats. In this case, our teams discovered the unauthorized access, contained it, and reported the incident to law enforcement. We regard the data security of our users as one of our greatest responsibilities and want to assure our customers that at no point during this incident was their personal data compromised."

The identity of the 16 years old hacker remains unknown.
