Although Carpenter had told his immediate supervisors he was working with an outside agency, after the FBI talked to Sandia counterintelligence, he was fired less than 90 days later after meetings where no minutes were kept or records made until after the fact.
Not a good track record for Sandia IMO.

Excessive award.
Should have been calculated as:
387,537 for lost wages, damages etc.
up to x3 for penalties for the malicious firing.
maximum total of: $1,162,611 should have been awarded

Anyone else feel the headline is totally out of synch with the rest of the article?

Why a misleading headline? He worked for Sandia, he is a (white-hat) hacker, and he got $4 million. Although instead of "gets" maybe "wins" or "is awarded" would be better.
Still, I like the title. It shows that not all hackers are bad people. To the contrary, this one is a great patriot for doing the right thing.
