The event that is causing a stir in this period is now more aware of, this is the data theft by hackers who invaded the server-related Sony game platform livePlaystation Network, stealing millions of data and credit card numbers, that can be used for purposes of potential fraud. For now, the invasion attempts of security systems by hackers, and all six were scored, with estimated notices that make it even more bitter the defeat of the Japanese company that is doing its best to interrupt the chain of ambushes perpetrated by these criminals whose purpose is still completely unknown, as no any kind of identity theft or cloning of credit cards in massive numbers.
The new attack, the last of the series for the time being, has been tried and failed against Sony BMG, known music production and distribution network, which has been besieged by hackers who have used a specialized application is currently not completely safe and easy to circumvent, unfortunately sites that rely on such technologies are a lot of it is a problem that threatens to expand to gigantic proportions, so it would be appropriate to conduct a meeting in which standard measurements are taken for all large producers.
All this however is not very likely given the fierce competition in this period that affects the market and have the possibility to partially eliminate a competitor like Sony is not a small feat considering that in several sectors such as videogames and PC, is a the undisputed market leader.
Unfortunately, this attack does not bode well for the future, if in the previous news we hoped for a breakthrough reported by Sony in terms of safety, or a period of quiet by these hackers, now is not more logical to think of solutions such as the attempts by Sony to tackle the problem have proved useless or nearly so, as hackers continue for weeks to announce and commit criminal acts that harm society and users.
Summing up this disaster to the disaster that struck the Giapponecon the earthquake and all the other threats, annexed, Sony would lose a large chunk of its value by the end of the year, according to experts, the lost value would be around $ 170 million . This figure does not represent a crisis that can drive in a solid company like Sony, but it certainly causes a severe blow to the economy in Asia, living in this business-related hi-tec.
The scenario is shaping up to be critical for Sony and for users who have come to know through newspapers and websites, a new attack that covers credit cards of customers CartaSi, which are now at risk of cloning, then the call to take action as soon as possible and periodically check their funds is critical to stem the panic created by this affair.
There are no right or wrong advice in this situation, by non-professionals, we can only limit to enable users aware of what happened and let the authorities take action in a clear, decisive and transparent manner, taking the current users at risk of possible consequences resulting from new attacks, now that the phenomenon is anything but limited, as it announced the parties, who naively tried to close a loophole from the principle already huge, and perhaps deserved different measures.
