Credit card banks have gotten hacked so really a company getting hacked isn't much of a rare thing. As far as people pointing at sony giving free games as the depth of the problem, I would look at it the way a company solves a problem. They gave free games for taking a month to restart their service, which meant they took their problems seriously. Most corporations have that taboo of rolling over their consumers don't they? The only thing that made the hack serious was Sony themselves. They accepted it, and closed the service for a month. |
it was one of the largest data security breaches in history..

if i'm not mistaken Sony was fined by security ageniceis for their lax security after their investigations were done. will see if i can get a link. The fact that it took a month to fix their service vs hours or days should tell you how bad the breach was.

"
The Information Commissioner's Office on Thursday said the security breach was "one of the most serious" it has handled under the Data Protection Act. The £250,000 fine is the maximum penalty awarded by the ICO against a private company.
"There's no disguising that this is a business that should have known better. It is a company that trades on its technical expertise, and there's no doubt in my mind that they had access to both the technical knowledge and the resources to keep this information safe," said David Smith, the ICO's deputy commissioner and director of data protection."
^^ guys... you're not looking with a economic perspective like mantlepiecek said...
it only costed Sony 170 million dollar... that's cheap!

Microsoft is hack able ask ppl who were hacked through FIFA soccer on Xbox live. Ppl who did not even own there game had there account hacked password changed. Microsoft points were stolen and used for FIFA soccer an ea game. Some ppl even found there account up for sale on sites. Sony 2 month shutdown was mandatory due to Sony wanting an investigation no one had and money stolen or accounts stolen during this process. It was the investigation and the implementation of new security for the 2 month wait. Sony gave me 2 free games infamous and a racing game plus free ps plus for a month. I was very happy and played offline the 2 months no biggie.
