Sony CEO Apologizes Through Blogs


Sony Corp. Chief Executive Howard Stringer apologized to all subscribers to the incidents of data theft by hackers (hackers). As a result of this event, Sony was forced to shut down online services PlayStation Network and Qriocity service for two weeks.

"As a company, we apologize for any inconvenience and concern caused by this attack," said Stringer, who posted through Sony's official blog on Thursday (05/05/2011). Team Sony promised immediate action to access these as quickly and as safely as possible.

Closure steps had to be done on 20 April 2011 on the grounds of external interference. Apparently, when the PlayStation network and Qriocity was laid waste by hackers and identity resulting in broken-down 77 million users of both networks, such as e-mail address, birth date, and a password.


Sony has cooperated with authorities, including the U.S. Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to pursue these intruders. On the other hand, Sony is facing a lawsuit over delays in information about any cases of data theft that might be hackers. The company warns of new customers on April 26, or six days after the closure of the PlayStation Network and streaming music Qriocity.
