Sony PlayStation Network Hacked Again


Sony says the personal information of another 24.6 million of its users may have been compromised after hackers breached their Playstation Network for the second time in three weeks. The last attack was on April 16 and 17, when 77 million accounts were jeopardized during a malicious intrusion.
Sony officials said they shut down service Monday morning to Sony Online Entertainment games which include the popular games "EverQuest," "Free Realms," and "DC Universe Online."
Company executives, who say they'll increase security, are working with the FBI to investigate the "cyber criminal attack."
