ugh

That’s not how what works? I know you dont know me but I’m a certified Cisco network engineer. I know how ddos works.

ddos doesn’t mean there was a breach of security. Any twit can perform a ddos attack. You just use LOIC. Its simple yet also illegal.

All that being said I still don’t know what you are trying to say.

I don’t care if Sony got attack with denial of service. It happens. I do however care if their security is breached and user data is stolen. If that’s the case this would be the second time for Sony and no Microsoft has never had breach of Xbox live security. Nobody has ever stolen millions of user passwords and credit card data. If that’s your implication.

That’s not how it works. XBL was DDoS’s this year, even though they have the “better online infrastructure”.

I hate that term.

fuuuuuuuuuuuck http://playstationfansunited.blogspot.com/2014/08/playstation-network-blizzard-and-lol.html

The issue could be on Sony’s end or it could be a congested link or a down link. I checked their twitter feed as well as the blog. This looks like a normal outage. These things happen.

Aside from that major inaccurate statement there is another. Hackers use denial of service attacks generally to hide an Intrusion into a network, to find holes in security, or to keep server admins out while they siphon information. So saying a ddos isn’t serious business gives people who don’t know any better a false sense of security. Any time a network is attacked you need to change your login credentials.
