PSN back online “shortly” Plus free gifts for PS3 & PSN users – Sony press conference update


PSN functionality to be fully restored

Sony have recently stated that their online function is to be fully restored, region-by-region, but as of yet have not given a date for this to start happening.

The first services to be restored will include online play, the PlayStation Home social network, and access to account management (where users can reset their passwords), friends lists, and live chat functionality.

Users with un-expired movie rentals will be able to resume watching content. Restoration of these services will begin “shortly.”

As for goodwill gestures meant to appease the tens of millions of angry gamers who had their information stolen, Sony is in the process of crafting a package that will provide users with “free entertainment content”

The exact nature of this content has yet to be revealed.

Current PSN users will have access to a free 30-day trial of PSN Plus, a subscription service that provides early or exclusive access to betas, game demos, and premium downloadable content.
Existing subscribers will be given a free month of PSN service–a value of about $5–as will subscribers to use Sony’s Unlimited music service.

For those interested, Sony will provide assistance to enrol in identity theft protection programs.
For starters, the company is creating a new executive position with the title Chief Information Security Officer, although nobody has been appointed to this position as of yet.

Other security measures include the addition of enhanced encryption to protect user data and instalment of a variety of unnamed automated tools designed to detect and defend against software intrusions. Sony are also creating a plan that was already in place to move to a new and more secure data centre.
When they do get back online, end users can expect to encounter a forced system update that will entail a mandatory password reset. Sony says that these new passwords can only be changed on the system on which they were created or with email verification.
