This was my first thought. Just zero code review going on? Some random server only that dude knew about? tf kind of controls these people have in place?

Oh right, none of the shit the company should have had.

Instead of jail time, the government should consider giving this guy whistleblower status and investigating the corp for negligence.

Idk kind of standard practice to have free reign of the place in certain positions. In my entire career working for billion dollar companies it wouldn't be hard to bury anything like this. In fact I've done forensics on someone that did. Very few places outside government practice zero trust. Hell I'm sure the government fails to do this all the time too.
