news reports indicate that Sony was running software that was badly out of date, and had been warned about that risk.

This thread will go unnoticed, this piece of info will be ignored by the media (controversy breeds coverage and hits), people will continue to spout untrue or unproven things, Sony should have mentioned this at their press interview (they may have, not sure), every case against them will lead to nothing and this once again seems to be a case of people believing what they want to believe or trying to make up things to just push along their agenda (media, fanboys, hacker supports and whatever).
Bet with Conegamer and AussieGecko that the PS3 will have more exclusives in 2011 than the Wii or 360... or something.
1 server /= 45 servers.. the server for the webpages could be updated but the server where our info was not...
Face the future.. Gamecenter ID: nikkom_nl (oh no he didn't!!)
Glad to hear that Sony weren't slacking in that area after all.
The password thing was hilarious. OMG OMG Sony stores passwords in clear text OMG their encryption must be sh*t too OMG LMAO.
If this turns out to be true you can bet your ass these anal lysts won't be lasting much longer.

Wouldn't it be weird if that was the only one they kept up to date though? It seems natural that they would upgrade all their servers over as few rollouts as possible, and the servers that keep our data need to be contacted by the webpage server for stuff like account info and what not. Not keeping them up to date with the webpage server seems very illogical, especially if they're running five year old software.
I thought they have 77 servers. I wonder how long it takes to update those all those servers...days, weeks, months?

Has Sony given a statement about all this stuff yet?
A poster on a website does brief research that consitutes looking up the version of a the web server operating Sony's webpage and this consitutes any sort of real proof that the servers that were breached were up to date and had the appopriate security? The information seems just as unreliable. Excuse me if I don't call the esteemed data security services of deathindustrial.
Sony has a black eye over this. There was a breach and personal data was lost. That was bad. The informed customers 6 days after they discovered the breach. That is worse. A credit card database was cofirmed stolen. That is even worse. To top it off, the online system that went down is still down 18 days later. BAMM! That is a black eye that is going to sting for a few years. Fixing this mess and repairing the damage is going to cost Sony alot of money over the course of those years.
It isn't about wanting to see Sony fall. When we hear the details of how and why this breach occured, we can discuss the degree to which Sony was negligent before the breach. The results of the breach, however, are bad enough. At this point, the hole has been dug and Sony is in it.
Thank god for the disable signatures option.

But you said it right there, the information is just as unreliable, so now you have two unreliable sources and yet some will still say that it's a foregone conclusion that Sony's servers were out of date. Why trust one unreliable source over another?
