“Sony says people in 59 nations use the PlayStation network. Of the 77 million user accounts, about 36 million are in the U.S. and elsewhere in the Americas, 32 million in Europe and 9 million in Asia, mostly in Japan.
The Ponemon Institute, a data-security research firm, estimated that the cost of a data breach involving a malicious or criminal act averaged $318 per compromised record in 2010, up 48 percent from the year earlier.
That could pin the potential cost of the PlayStation breach at more than $24 billion.”
Prior to launching Schell Games in 2002 Jesse was the Creative Director at Disney Imagineering Studio. He is also an Assistant Professor of Entertainment Technology at CMU’s Entertainment Technology Center.
