Sullivan was given three years probation by a U.S. federal judge in 2023 after a federal jury convicted him of two charges related to his attempted coverup of a 2016 security incident at Uber, where hackers stole the personal details of 57 million customers and the personal information of 600,000 Uber drivers.
