Consumer data is supposed to be ok. They think it's the same group that hacked PSN.

Per Spike TV bottomline

Microsoft would be fools to not be pouring time and money into their network protection right now.

Probably Mario kart and most of the ds stuff mainly

That said, there's The online store where people buy games and downloads (wiishopping channel as well as dsi/3rd version) which probably holds some financial data

That's why I deleted my old XBL account and made a new one without having a CC in the system, preventative measure.

White Hats hack your network, let the world know, and tell you how they got in so you can fix it.

Black hats hack your network, let the world know, and take as much info as they can get their mitts on, and don't tell you how they got in.

In a nutshell.

The 360 is safe, people! Anonomous is fans of the 360. That's why they are attacking PSN and now Nintendo. Trust me. Nothing will happen to the XBOX.

Hacker group hits Sony BMG - News at GameSpot


LulzSec continues rampage against PS3 maker by hitting music division's servers; company says it is "looking into" new attack.

Hacker collective LulzSec has been on quite a tear of late. Less than one week after compromising some 1 million Sony Pictures accounts and one day after breaking into Nintendo's servers, the hacker group is again targeting the PlayStation maker. Today, LulzSec updated its website with a new press release announcing it had compromised Sony BMG's servers.

As proof of its trespass, LulzSec posted network maps from a Sony BMG office located in New York City, as well as 54MB worth of Sony developer source code.

"We've recently bought a copy of this great new game called 'Hackers vs Sony,' but we're unable to play it online due to [PlayStation Network] being obliterated," LulzSec said in its statement, ostensibly unaware that service has been restored to the PSN. "So we decided to play offline mode for a while and got quite a few trophies. Our latest goal is 'Hack Sony 5 Times,' so please find enclosed our 5th Sony hack."

"ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED: HACK SONY 6 TIMES! Oh damn, we just did it again, please also find enclosed internal network maps of Sony BMG," the statement continued.

In a comment issued to Reuters, Sony Pictures spokesman Jim Kennedy said, "We are looking into these claims." Sony had not responded to GameSpot's request for comment as of press time.

The source of Sony's hacker issue is not explicitly clear. However, it is often attributed to the publisher's removal of the OtherOS option from the PlayStation 3 through a firmware update or its legal battle against PlayStation 3 hacker George "GeoHot" Hotz.

What is clear is the hacking community's response. Beyond the aforementioned attacks on various Sony Corp. divisions, the company's game segment has been especially hard hit. In April, hackers compromised the PSN and Qriocity services as well as Sony Online Entertainment, exposing information from more than 100 million accounts in the process. According to Sony, the security breach has cost it $171.1 million.

anonymous isnt attacking and that is such false logic; so i really hope you're kidding

the only thing anonymous went after with Sony was hijacking their sites in protest/opposition to Sony's suing of George Hotz (unlocking the PS3 to any usage of any game/dvd/whatever), specifically because:

"Sony's gaining access to the IP addresses of all the people who visited George Hortz' blog as part of the libel action, terming it an 'offensive against free speech and internet freedom'"
.....part of their tennents are stuff free speech on the internet, internet freedom, and an unregulated internet

They also denied this attack once the PSN outage happened


This is just a bunch of dickholes who are hacking companies and stealing data....well just for the lulz
