Forums - Sony - Engadget: Unreleased Sony movies leak online following studio hack

Why would I care for how many people agree with me? If Sony doesn't improve their security concepts and put them on a professional level they will be victims again. It's a bad situation for big companies but you can prevent them - it just depends on how much money you want to spend for it.

Also I am not sticking up for the hackers but I say you can't say that poor Sony is only a victim here without any responsability to enable this big hack.

You're making so many assumptions, it's not even funny. You also act as if Sony is the only company that gets hacked and as if you know that they did something wrong. You assume that they don't spend enough money. Please show some evidence to support your claim. Or do you think all those goverment organizations don't have enough money and that's why they get hacked? An inside job can be almost impossible to deal with. Thing is, you don't know so maybe you should stop with all the assumptions.

Sony deserve this. They are pouring money in divisions that dont yield cash. And putting less protection to these sites and PSN.

I said it's a problem for all major companies. And what this hack revealed was a major flaw of their internal architecture and security design. And I didn't say they don't spend enough money. I said that if you spend more money in this part of your company, hacks that large can be prevented.

This is part of one of the biggest hacking achievement I read about in recent years...


Are you rubbing your hands together in glee?  You seem to enjoy Sony getting hacked, no matter how many people it may affect


better question is why are you offended..


easy answer "most favorite console = PS3"

Read your sentence again. It means exactly the same thing. It's basic logic, really. 

Also, like I said, you a) have no evidence to show how much money they spend compared to other companies that have been hacked, and b) it's an extremely uninformed opinion, thinking that more money will suddenly prevent all future hacks. Yet goverment agencies get hacked all the time. You still haven't explained that which doesn't surprise me.

Yikes. That's really bad news for Sony pictures. They need to get rid of those movies from all over the internet quickly similar to how all those celebrities removed their phone pictures a few months ago.

Wait, what? How do you get the feeling I am enjoying this? Serious question.

You can tell you enjoy it from your language.  Calling it an 'achievement' and using '...' suggests to me you are trying to push people to a conclusion


To hack a big company like this and especially gaining that much information *and* data is, in hacking context, a very big achievement and shows that there was a lot of effort put into this and that the security concepts were not as professional as they should be.

This is surely harming people but I am talking about what the hackers achieved with their hacking. I don't remember anything that big in the recent years. This is not me being happy this happened to Sony, to be clear.

Achievement does have a postive connotation. Use "feat" instead this is a crime after all, and you wouldn't call robbing a bank an achievement.
