Who is behind this?
It is suspected that a nation state is behind this, North Korea being the prime suspect, and the motives are unclear. However, it could be because they may be upset over a video, starring Seth Rogan and James Franco, being released; that video being called ‘The Interview.’ Though, nothing is for sure, it is strongly suspected. Whomever is behind this attack is using Lizard Squad, a hacker group, as a cover, and they are not done yet. Over the past week, it is reported that Sony has lost millions of dollars because of the setbacks this situation has caused.
What was taken and what happened?
There were more than just financial statements taken, this time around. It has been released that big movie hits have been leaked and that there was an attempt to take down Sony Studios and their ability to create movies. This is a huge threat to a multi-billion dollar corporation and goes beyond their Studio division. Having already affected the entire network, consumer’s information is at risk, and that may include the PlayStation Network.
What could they have done?
There are many security measures that Sony should have taken, in order to further prevent this disaster. Here are some of the following that should, or could, have been looked into:
