Net voor dat Sony begint met zijn pers presentatie heeft hackers groep LulzSec de source code van de Sony Computer Entertainment Developer Network (SCEDEV) online gezet. Deze gegevens hebben ze buitgemaakt tijdens hun hack die enkele dagen geleden plaats vond. DevNet is waar developers hun tools en systeem updates halen, en hun games online testen. Dit is ondertussen de zoveelste tegenslag voor Sony.

Today, the group has revealed that they have penetrated yet another Sony website. The latest attack has exposed the web source code for Sony's developer portal, which is known as the Sony Computer Entertainment Developer Network (SCEDEV). The portal grants official Sony developing partners access to the latest Software Development Kits for the PlayStation 3 as well as other tools.

The group has only released the web page source code and they have not revealed if they have gained access to Sony's proprietary PS3 software tools. However, the release of the source code could lead to other hackers exploiting the web pages further.
