Tablet computers and a software vulnerability were enough to help 364 prison inmates in Idaho collectively steal $225,000. The tablets were issued by JPay, which specializes in offering an online system for prison inmates. But apparently, the JPay system also contained a vulnerability involving account credit amounts, which inmates across five Idaho correctional facilities decided to hack. The $225,000 was also stolen from the JPay system and was not taxpayer dollars. As a punishment, Idaho correctional facilities have suspended the inmates' ability to download more music and games until they refund JPay.
