financial insitutions it's alot more pressing then a gaming company, and all you really told me with that is that Sony isn't the premire of secruity (which I already knew) and you don't know what the industry standard is either, you seem biased because you work for a company that does have a higher industry standard then Sony's industry and it's your job to make sure they have top of the line secruity and any company that doesn't you call negliligent when it might not be realistic for other industries to do so 


What? I'm biased towards security? Shouldn't everyone be? There is no excuse for lax security, especially for one with a revenue as big as Sony.

Security is not a finite resource that has to be shared. There was nothing stopping Sony upgrading to 2.2.17 because my company may have done it, that argument is completely ludicrous.

So tell me, what was so unrealistic of Sony to NOT keep their services up to date? I'd really like to hear this. The company holds sensitive data for millions of users, their assets are one of the largest in the world, yet updating an Apache server is way to damn much to ask for from them!
