Appellate Court Upholds Sentence for Former Uber Cyber Executive Joe Sullivan

The conviction of Uber's former security chief, Joe Sullivan, for obstruction of justice has been upheld by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in California this week. Sullivan, a cybersecurity expert, had contested several aspects of his sentence and the charges against him. He was sentenced to three years of probation by a U.S. court. Sullivan was involved in a case of concealing a data breach at Uber.
