They admitted that passwords were unencrypted?

Jesus Christ.

FUCKING WORDPRESS USES ENCRYPTION FOR COMMENTING.

Fuck off, Sony. Seriously. Just retarded.


"Q: Was my personal data encrypted?
 A: All of the data was protected, and access was restricted both physically and through the perimeter and security of the network. The entire credit card table was encrypted and we have no evidence that credit card data was taken. The personal data table, which is a separate data set, was not encrypted, but was, of course, behind a very sophisticated security system that was breached in a malicious attack."

I am constantly amazed that anyone in IT would allow unencrypted passwords. I just don't get what they are thinking. There is no benefit to storing that shit in plain text.

Un-fucking-believable.

I've done more work than I care to count in databases using MySQL, MSSQL, and Fox Pro. Never ONCE have I seen a password field unencrypted.
