Japanese electronics giant Sony says the recent network security breach through the PlayStation Network will cost them $170 million. According to Pocket Lint, the company’s forecast result for its annual report is closer to $3.2 billion taking into consideration the disasters that have plagued the country.
“It’s not likely that Sony will be back to its A game in terms of revenue for a while either – its woes just in terms of the PSN are far from over; only last week Pocket-lint reported how an exploit had been found on the password reset system.”
