PSN Now More Secure Than Ever, Adds 3 Million New Users

I remember the days vividly, when gamers around the internet would spell Sony’s doom over the PSN hacks. But checking a few months later, when Anonymous are being roundup around the world, and PSN’s back in full force, the service, according to Sony, has added 3 million new users and is now stronger than ever.

“I’m pleased to tell you that the PSN is more secure and better than ever,” Sir Howard Stringer, Sony’s Chief Executive said at a recent conference. “We are aggressively expanding its content. We have more than 3 million new customers since the network came back online, and sales are exceeding what we had before the cyberattacks.”

We’re not sure how many of the accounts are really new people, or current subscribers looking to create new aliases, but it’s an impressive comeback indeed.

    hopefully they have learnt their lesson!
    hopefully next time when security experts come knocking on the door warning of open holes they will listen instead of slamming the door shut!
