The hacking group Anonymous is still considered a prime suspect in the PSN breach, and is now being accused of several other intrusions as well. According to internet reports, the group has hacked into the Eidos and Deus Ex websites in order to steal user information.
"A hacker using the alias 'evo' discusses having defaced the sites and downloading some 9,000 resumes from Eidos," a security site with knowledge of the information said. “In a separate conversation, the hackers also say they have stolen information on at least 80,000 Deus Ex users and that they plan to release the data on file-sharing networks.”
Anonymous has been known for its “Hacktivism” in the past, but these latest developments seem to indicate that the group’s motives have now become decidedly more sinister.
