Η Sony Pictures was hacked according to a post that appeared this morning on Reddit . THE hacker ή οι hackers ισχυρίζονται ότι όλοι οι υπολογιστές της companywere affected.
According to the Reddit post, a picture εμφανίστηκε σε όλους τους υπολογιστές των εργαζομένων που δήλωνε”Hacked by #GOP» απαιτώντας να «ικανοποιηθούν τα αιτήματα” του, ή τα αιτήματα τους. Η εικόνα περιέχει και τους συνδέσμους που οδηγούν στα δεδομένα που they leaked.
The Reddit user who published the news reports that he worked for Sony Pictures a year ago.
I used to work for Sony Pictures. My friend still works there and sent me this. It's on every computer all over Sony Pictures nationwide.
The ZIP files referenced in the image (links to the leaked data are blurry) contain lists of financial document-related documents, along with the private key to access the servers. The message appearing on computers indicates that hackers' "requirements" will have to be met by 24 in November at 23: 00 GMT or otherwise the files will be released publicly.
A source inside Sony has anonymously confirmed to TNW that the breach has taken place and the image allegedly displayed on Sony Pictures computers is genuine. He also said that they violated "a single server and the attack spread from there."
For those who do not know Sony Pictures is the US company that manages the distribution of the film and television productions of the company.
We await the company's press release on whether it managed to deal with the violation. However, we find it impossible to succumb to extortion.
