The ordeal of Sony does not seem to have an end in the near future, one of the most powerful video game manufacturers in the world is kneeling before the ability of hackers, who are, on Tuesday, brought back to the database of the Playstation Network, data store containing personal information such as data and document numbers, but especially credit card numbers, which can be cloned as causing millions of euro in damages.
If so Sony will have to compensate all the people cheated the whole amount lost due to a system of data protection is not efficient and easily violated several times by hackers who are involved in this amazing business, if not completely illegal, and that could lead to the cloning of credit cards.
After the scandal broke a week ago, Sony collects another blow, which significantly reduces the fame and the esteem he had gained over the past decade, giving users cutting-edge products, able to keep gamers glued to screens for hours and hours. Something must have gone wrong for the Japanese, this easy-intrusion is definitely synonymous with superficiality and sprattutto with little forethought, a sensitive area such as the privacy of gamers, who entrust their personal information at home and then be outraged by hackers more than once were entered into the system reserved only for professionals, with high safety standards but apparently easy to overcome for some.
The most likely hypothesis is that information passed under the table from someone got hold of the data needed to penetrate the system, this makes the game easier for a computer expert who manages to overcome a few steps in the security system from Sony . It can not be ruled out that there was a flaw in the safety net and that someone carefully analyzing the network, was able to use it to create havoc and above profit, since entering a system and then not derive any benefit is likely only to damage the own situation, optical detection, which could not be late in coming, if hackers decide to back the company groped for the third time.
Of course, Sony is trying to stem the problem and, as they say in these cases, "saving face, hoping not to lose too many users that they could turn to the already strong competition for itself in recent times. It is not to question the quality of the console, but if users are frequent players live, which is increasingly gaining the heart of the new generation of gamers, the problem is very serious and at the moment without a drastic solution that could stem the problem.
This belief is given by the statement from Sony a few days ago, which ensured that the sector would recover live without problems, giving users who remain loyal to the Playstation network a month of free game live through the promotion Welcome Back. This seemed to many a small consolation compared to the possibility of losing thousands of euro by credit card, which could be cloned by hackers who own the code and personal information necessary to do so.
We'll see what happens over the next few days, the hope is to return to normal as soon as possible, users will continue to be difficult from now on to trust Sony like old times for the game live, this is indeed the greatest damage to the so that the Japanese would lose status as a producer perfect Earn in recent years thanks to perfect products, no problems at the expense of the user.
