Hacker reveals the reason for attacking Sony: Let it upgrade security technology

Lead: American Science and technology information website Winbeta Friday, the notorious hacker organization Lizard Geek launched an attack on Microsoft's Xbox Live and Sony PlayStation receptacle on December 25, 2014. The group has claimed responsibility for several previous hacking attacks, but the attack was the largest one ever launched by the group. The Winbeta website interviewed members of the organization about their actions, motivations, and plans for the future. The following is the full text of the article: Winbeta confirmed the identity of the interviewee by various means, confirming that the interviewee was the core member of Lizard Geek. The interview was conducted through an encrypted link that the group had previously posted on Twitter saying there was no way to track their whereabouts. In this interview, Winbeta understand the organization of a series of hacker attack methods and ideas. Motivation Lizard Geek said the attack on Microsoft's Xbox Live and Sony PSN was initially a joke, but eventually developed into a real hacking attack. The success of these two gaming networks suggests that Microsoft and Sony are powerless to protect their users, and that there are real weaknesses in their technology. Lizard Geek claimed that their actions simply caused the network to be offline in a short time, forcing Microsoft and Sony to upgrade their security technologies. The group said it believed it would spark more anger and attract more attention, forcing Microsoft and Sony to react more aggressively as they attacked Microsoft and Sony during Christmas. The group has also considered other companies, such as Nintendo, but has not acted on these companies in the end. The organization tries to expose the current problem of computer security, while entertaining it. Lizard Geek points out that if they want to destroy the economy, they can attack the Nasdaq altogether. But that is not their goal. They jokingly call themselves terrorists, but they don't think they are very evil. Information security issues in the interview, Winbeta asked the question: which company Microsoft and Sony are more vulnerable to attack, and Lizard Geek's answer is Microsoft. Sony, they say, has recently upgraded its information security capabilities, enabling a new system that has led to more time for hackers to complete the attack. On the other hand, Microsoft's information security technology is very bad, in the eyes of hackers almost nothing. On the question of how long it will continue their attacks, lizard Geek says they will continue to do so until these companies learn from information security incidents. The group is unwilling to comment on the specific timetable. (D-Gold)
