Following the Sony press conference last night, an image showing how the PSN was actually hacked had been given to the press.

Now, I'm not some kind of hacking extraordinaire, so most of this diagram is like trying to read a foreign language.

Either way, it’s a lovely and colorful diagram and thanks to Sony for putting it on page 10 of the press booklet.


Even that isn't much of any detailed information, but it's a start. If any of you guys can breakdown this diagram, please feel to do so in a reply.

I just thought it was a neat thing to see. I came across it and thought I would share. I know some of the terms in the diagram, but I can't explain it in a way that even I would understand it lol.
