Michael Scheuer, a former Disney menu production manager, has been sentenced to three years in prison for hacking into the company's servers and altering restaurant menus, which included falsifying allergen information and inserting profane language. He was ordered to pay nearly $690,000 in restitution after pleading guilty to computer fraud and aggravated identity theft. Scheuer’s actions raised concerns about public health and safety, particularly due to manipulated allergen information that could have endangered individuals with allergies. Disney identified and corrected all alterations before they affected restaurant operations, but Scheuer's misconduct also included disabling employee accounts, disrupting the menu creation system, and necessitating the application’s removal for restoration.
