Sonys PlayStation Network taken down by DDoS, as company reels from last months massive Sony Pictures hack

2014-12-08 14:36:47| Extremetech

Poor Sony: This morning, the company's PlayStation Network was unreachable due to suspected foul play by Lizard Squad, the same hacker group that took down Microsoft's Xbox Live network last wee. Lizard Squad used a distributed denial of service (DDoS) to take the networks offline. This latest Sony outage comes just a couple of weeks after a devastating and very-high-profile hack on Sony Pictures, which resulted in a massive leak of sensitive information and unreleased movies.
