PS3 & PSP: Another PSN hack on the way?
Three new messages were published today on the official PlayStation blog in the US. The first was written by Patrick Seybold, marketing manager, and states that Sony has entered the final stage of the preparations to reopening the PSN. It is not yet clear whether the company will meet the deadline they set, to reactivating some of the services by the end of the week.
The second letter, signed by Sony international CEO, Sir Howard Stringer, is an apology letter, in which Stringer refers to the claims that Sony didn’t act quickly enough after discovering its servers were hacked. According to Stringer, the minute they learned about the size of the hack Sony disabled its servers and hired experts to investigate the occurrences. He says, Sony waited because they wanted to understand what happened and what information was stolen, before announcing it to clients. In addition, Stringer repeats the means of compensation Sony will offer its clients, starting with free content and up to a one month subscription for the premium service – PlayStation Plus.
The third letter, that refers to the American clients exclusively, offers them a year’s free subscription on Allclear ID Plaus that protects personal information online and alerts the client when there’s a suspicion for unlicensed use of that information. It is not yet clear whether Sony’s clients outside the US will receive the same support.
