Morning Everyone
Tonight is Thursday. A night I reserve for the NaN and for the Battlefield, so I will be around, using my newfound Level 50 skills to decimate the enemy.
PSN News - From Kotaku
On the company's PlayStation.blog, Patrick Seybold senior director of corporate communications writes that the PlayStation maker will be "taking steps to make our services safer and more secure than ever before."
That includes "a new system software update that will require all users to change their password once PlayStation Network is restored." Currently, PSN accounts are locked out of the system, making a change to personal information and passwords impossible.
Furthermore, Sony says it is "initiating several measures that will significantly enhance all aspects of PlayStation Network's security and your personal data, including moving our network infrastructure and data center to a new, more secure location, which is already underway."
On the safety of your personal and financial information...
The entire credit card table was encrypted and we have no evidence that credit card data was taken. The personal data table, which is a separate data set, was not encrypted, but was, of course, behind a very sophisticated security system that was breached in a malicious attack.
On the credit card details that PlayStation Network and Qriocity do and do not store...
While all credit card information stored in our systems is encrypted and there is no evidence at this time that credit card data was taken, we cannot rule out the possibility. If you have provided your credit card data through PlayStation Network or Qriocity, out of an abundance of caution we are advising you that your credit card number (excluding security code) and expiration date may have been obtained. Keep in mind, however that your credit card security code (sometimes called a CVC or CSC number) has not been obtained because we never requested it from anyone who has joined the PlayStation Network or Qriocity, and is therefore not stored anywhere in our system.
