A former employee of the Federal Reserve Board installed unauthorized software on a Board server to earn bitcoins through the server's computing power. The employee modified security safeguards to remotely access the server from home. When confronted, the employee initially denied wrongdoing but later remotely deleted the software to conceal actions. Forensic analysis confirmed the employee's involvement, resulting in termination and a guilty plea to unlawful conversion of government property. The employee was sentenced to 12 months probation and a $5,000 fine.
