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.

This, there is not such thing as a perfect system. I'm sick of hearing all the whining about how "Sony let this happen."


No, Shit happens sometimes, and occasionally in life, It's going to happen to you. Get used to it.

sounds about right. saying they were near impenetrable before has brought alot of wrath upon them. at least they are learning

lol all i know is they better not get hacked again

No one can say for sure that they'll NEVER get hacked; you just never know what's around the corner or what could happen. The main thing is Sony take lessons from what happened, and I think it's safe to say they're in a much better (and safer) place now than they were a few months ago.
