A student hacker who used pornography websites' ad networks to deploy the Angler Exploit Kit onto his marks' devices has been jailed for six years.

Zain Qaiser, a 24-year-old Londoner from Barking, used ad networks on smut websites to distribute malware including the Angler Exploit Kit, which the National Crime Agency (NCA) said was "believed to have been created, managed and marketed by one of Qaiser's Russian-speaking associates".
