A Russian man accused of hacking US companies and stealing the personal information of 100 million customers was extradited from Georgia and delivered to Manhattan federal prosecutors on Friday.

Andrei Tyurin, 35, stands accused of cyber attacks on major US banks and brokerages, including JP Morgan, Fidelity Investments and E*Trade Financial Corp.

He pleaded not guilty and was ordered detained.

The extradition is tied to 2015 charges against several men, including Gery Shalon and Ziv Orenstein, who have been extradited from Israel.

The feds say Tyurin “engaged in an extensive computer hacking campaign targeting financial institutions, brokerage firms, and financial news publishers in the United States” on behalf of Shalon from 2012 to 2015.

He faces 10 counts, including conspiracy to commit computer hacking and aggravated identity theft, and as much as 102 years in prison.
