"Sony: 100,000 SOE, PSN Accounts Compromised
By Mike Sharkey | Oct 12, 2011
Company once again the target of hackers.
Here we go again. After making Sony the victim of the largest theft of consumer data in history in April, hackers are once again trying to make SOE and PlayStation Network their digital punching bags. Sony announced that its networks have been breached and nearly 100,000 SOE and PSN accounts have been compromised.
In a statement issued across Sony's networks, Chief Information Security Officer Philip Reitinger said his team recently detected that individuals were attempting to "test a massive set of sign-in IDs and passwords against our network database." More than 33,000 SOE accounts were impacted, he said, and those accounts have been locked as Sony reviews the incident.
"Please note, if you have a credit card associated with your account, your credit card number is not at risk," Reitinger said. "We will work with any users whom we confirm have had unauthorized purchases made to restore amounts in the PSN/SEN or SOE wallet."
Reitinger said Sony believes the account information was obtained from an outside source, not Sony's network, and as a result of the attack the company is requiring secure password resets for all impacted users. If you are among those locked out of your SOE account, Sony said you will soon receive an email at the address associated with your SOE account. That email will advise you on the next steps required to validate your account and get you back online."
Seriously, I don't think these hackers quite realize their actually turning the public against them with shit like this, it's retarded =/
