Europe’s ‘youngest app designer’ expelled from school for hacking its IT system

Posted on March 9, 2012 by Dissent

ANI reports:

A “computer whizzkid”, who was crowned Europe’s youngest application designer, has been expelled for hacking into his school’s computer system.

Aaron Bond, 14, was expelled from King Edward VI College in Totnes, Devon for trying to access confidential information about staff and students and even the vice-principal’s financial information.

He managed to access details about his peers and edited the IT room booking system and school newsletter before the security breach came to school management’s knowledge.
