Those four entities you listed to my knowledge are not responsible for improvements in the system security. They are just responsible for finding the breaches, and trying to identify those who committed the act. When your home is burglarized it is not the responsibility of the police to put more locks on your doors. They might advise you to do so however. The same goes for the security firms they aren't there to build the system. They are there to help them find out what was stolen. To be honest it probably wasn't just that user information. Some of Sony's own shit was probably taken.

That said these guys aren't there to do the job Sony is paid to perform. The law enforcement community is interested in capturing criminals, and the security firms are paid to give them answers. Sony are the only ones responsible for how well the system performs. Given past performance I am sure there will be bone head blunders.

Speaking to the numbers. Those have been known to change weeks or months later. They are not factual they are just good estimates, and as such they can be wildly wrong.

Can you point to where I even implied that they were in charge of rebuilding the network?  Can't?  That's probably because I didn't.  However, I did say that Sony is probably going to have to wait until they finish their investigations before pressing forward with PSN.

As for the numbers, you are right about them changing.  And in Sony's case, it's usually up.
