In a recent letter to the Congress, Sony stated the changes and improvements they've made after the huge, historic breach. Sony said that they heightened security through newly added firewalls, making policy changes and increasing the "monitoring of its PlayStation and Qriocity systems." However, their efforts may be insufficient.
Sony's very own Kazuo Hirai mentioned, "no security system is absolutely foolproof, and changing conditions in the future can make a currently secure environment less secure. These gaps in what we know are not for lack of trying by experts, but rather an unfortunate testament to the skill of those who perpetrated the attacks. Some aspects of the intrusion may never be known." All I dug up from that was a nice, filled to the top can of uncertainty. Hirai said that changing things up can make a "currently secure environment less secure." -- quiet comedic, seeing as how their secure system was breached. Such statements lacking confidence makes us PlayStation users a bit uneasy. I mean, a huge tech giant implying that their systems will never be truly and fully secured is shocking. Well, at least Kazuo Hirai is being honest; after all, we all make mistakes no matter the degree.
I am not surprised by this. Because you can't really put a guarantee on something that you know that has got hacked before. It's just the luck of the draw.
No company can ever say their network is 100% secure, neither could the CIA, Homeland Security, or any national defense agency of any country, let alone a business. If enough resources, or talent... or even both are mustered anything can be breached. Its why some agencies employ entire devisions doing nothing but diverting and deflecting attacks. The samething that happened to Sony could happen to Microsoft with the xbox or even Nintendo (rofl) if enough effort was put in.
I bet they will get hacked.... Cause they haven't upgraded their Security System.. If they release PS4 i bet that they make better Security System. And if it works fine, they will put it on PS3 too. So both of the devices will be Guaranteed of that they will not get hacked. (Y)
