Tesla is suing a former employee for allegedly exporting gigabytes of confidential data, according to a lawsuit filed in Nevada on Wednesday.

The electric car maker said it is only beginning to understand all of former process technician Martin Tripp's allegedly illegal activity. The suit said Tripp "has thus far admitted to writing software that hacked Tesla's manufacturing operating system ("MOS") and to transferring several gigabytes of Tesla data to outside entities."
