Sony hiring for a new anti-piracy team

Recent job listings for Sony suggest that the company are trying to bolster their defences against hackers. SCEA’s recruitment site posted the ads that requested a senior corporate counsel and senior paralegal to aid in “developing and implementing an anti-piracy program”.

The former will need “Deep knowledge of trademark and copyright law” and “knowledge of online investigative practices, online databases, anti-piracy and DMCA tracker products and services”.

The listing stated that “the program to be developed will require a strong strategic online component” and will take input from a variety of SCEA’s departments.

Thanks to Gamasutra for the info.
