PlayStation Network attacked "every day"

SCE's president of worldwide studios says that his company is playing a "cat and mouse" game at all times with hackers

Ever since the massive PlayStation Network breach in 2011, Sony's platform has been a prime example of how serious the industry's hacking problem has become. While Sony and many other companies have tried their hardest to firm up their respective network infrastructures, hacking attempts continue, some being more successful than others. In fact, just this past Christmas, both PlayStation Network and Xbox Live were forced offline by Lizard Squad. If you ask Sony Computer Entertainment worldwide studio boss Shuhei Yoshida, attempts to harm gaming networks occur even more frequently than you might think.

"We are always always working against these attacks. Actually, an attack happens every day. Literally every day," he disclosed to GameInformer magazine.
