Marking the latest setback for Sony, after last April hackers stole data from more than 100 million customers following his account. No one claimed responsibility for the attack.
Citing reports Reuters, the group LulzSec on Thursday (02/06/2011) says it has entered into a server running the website Sony Pictures Entertainment, and access personal information of more than 1 million customers Sony.
To underscore the sense that the Japanese electronics giant is not able to prevent intruders on its network, LulzSec publish the name, date of birth, address, email, phone numbers, and passwords of thousands of people who promoted the contest participants Sony.
A spokesman for Sony said that the company has "seen the claim that", but refused to explain.
"From a single injection, we have access to EVERYTHING, the group said in a statement that hackers." How do you put security in a company that lets him open to attack this simple? "
Reuters claims to have confirmed the authenticity of data about the data published by Sony contestant hackers.
The attack comes ahead of Sony's executive committee meeting of Congress to testify about the attack on its network games last April. Representatives of Sony has been criticized as it is considered too late to tell customers about the attack.
U.S. federal trade commission must vote to review the circumstances that led to the latest attacks if Sony Pictures Entertainment failed to use proper procedures to protect customer data.
John Bumgarner, chief technology officer at the U.S. unit of cyber consequences, a nonprofit group that monitors the web attacks, was not surprised that Sony system again uprooted.

He said last week discovered a vulnerability in the system of Sony Pictures Entertainment recently.

They also infiltrate into Fox.com website and publish data on the Fox TV talent contestant event to come, "X Factor".
