Sony’s PSN had barely been turned back on than it was yet again compromised – this time thanks to the astonishing oversight of requiring users to reset their passwords using the information which was already leaked to hackers.

he latest exploit is so obvious it is alarming that Sony did not think of it in spite of supposedly having teams of independent security experts audit its systems – to perform the compulsory password reset (from a computer), users require their PSN account email and their date of birth, both of which were already leaked in the original hackk.

I laughed. I laughed so hard.

It's rare I get to witness a massive failure of this scale - I'm actually impressed how badly planned that was, for being Sony.

What do they gotta do to get some decent security around here?

Have the US servers gone up yet?
Cuz apparently the Japanese government is not letting Sony put PSN back up here in Japan till it is 100% secure.
