Sony Corporations in Tokyo are being restrained from continuing their online services as of now. The reason being they are needed to provide more information on what measures they have taken to strengthen security after this long outage.
Kazushige Nobutani, director of the Media and Content Industry department at the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, said, "We met with Sony on May 6 and 13, and basically we want two things from them." Nobutani wanted to Sony to clarify it's "preventative measures." Nobutani stated, "the first is preventative measures. As of May 13, Sony was incomplete in exercising measures that they said they will do on the May 1 press conference." Secondly, he wants more details on how Sony is going to regain the confidence of its consumers after the exposure of their personal information such as credit card numbers. "There were similar cases in the past that were caused by other firms, and we are asking Sony whether their measures are good enough when compared to countermeasures taken in the past," said Nobutani. So, until that information is provided, it looks like the PSN isn't coming back to life in Japan. However, Sony began restoration last night in America, Europe, Australia, New Zealand, and the Middle East.
