Sony has already been attacked, literally, everywhere. its arm games, responsible for the PSN was working to fix a bug that took the air network, and only recently returned in full. Its music division, Sony BMG, had its website hacked and data stolen Greek. And its handset division, Sony Ericsson, Canada had the same treatment shortly afterwards. Now was the time of its film division, Sony Pictures, have attacked its server.
A group of hackers called LulzSec claims to have obtained data from more than 1 million users of Sony. Most of them have been stolen from the database sonypictures.com site, but another part was also stolen from the Dutch and Belgian versions of the site from Sony BMG. As evidence of the alleged breach, they released a torrent file called Sownage with just over 4 MB and a small part of the database.
In the press release (?) released by the group, they say the servers of Sony Pictures guarding the user's information without encryption, so managed data such as names, addresses, email and even passwords in plain text. Oops.
We already knew that Sony would continue the attacks to happen, but at least I thought it would be a longer interval between them.
