Sony hacked again!

I’m an happy PS3 user but I’m starting to doubt…

Sony has launched again the notice, at least 3 countries had been hacked, including in Greece where 8,500 user accounts had been stolen/compromised but saying that they don’t think that credit card data had been stolen.

After noticing that the Greek Sony Computer Entertainment website had a security breach, the service was immediately stopped and remains that way.
Sony added that last week a security breach was also found on it’s Indonesian and Thai websites.

This news comes after Sony last massive online hacking attack that made Sony loose millions of dollars and also users, that started to migrate to other platforms like Microsoft’s XBOX.
Sony estimates that the previous attacks and this last ones will in at least $170 million of known costs.

This new info may also compromise the fully restore of PlayStation Network and Qriocity service that were schedule for the end of this month.
