German mag reveals hacker scan logs.
German magazine Computer Bild has uncovered evidence that suggests the PlayStation Network hack that left personal information tied to 77 million user accounts compromised was the result of Sony's "obsolete software".
The magazine claims to have received scan logs provided to it by hacker group Anonymous that indicate Sony servers were running "long-outdated" programs and web services prior to the 19th April attack.
These logs are the result of Anonymous' own scanning of Sony's servers for potential vulnerabilities that facilitate DdoS attacks.
