PSN Sony: PSN Still Down, Experts Evaluating Security Measures

[x3sphere]

Could the PSN outage slip into next week? We were hoping for a quick turnaround time when Sony issued a press release last week announcing that it'd be up by this week, but now that it's Friday with no firm ETA in sight, it looks like the situation might drag on. In a PS Blog update today, SCEA spokesperson Patrick Seybold notes that the company is still working with experts to "confirm the security of the network infrastructure," as well as the PS3 system software itself.

Seybold also reiterates that the company will not reactivate PSN services until it is 100 percent confident in the redesigned security system.

hm.... it says it wont be "fully" online until the 31st. they had mentioned before that "partial" services, including online play, would be restored earlier. i wonder if that is still the case....

on the flip side, i like how they say they are "sticking to the plan", like it has always been the plan to keep it down until the 31st. this is the first ive heard of this "plan". thanks for letting us in on the details sony.
