How cyber-insurance saved the day for Sony, and why this is very important for all of us

Update 19-Apr-15
Wikileaks rolls out a easy to search dump of all the data!

Update 04-Feb-15:

Update 26-Jan-15:
Please check my blog here, for a full sum-up

Update 24-Dec-14:
N. Korea got knocked off the internet by a DDoS. Some say US is behind this, in retaliation of Sony hack. But I am sure there is no basis of that theory. North Korea blames Obama!

Update 23-Dec-14:
Seems like there are numerous security gurus (skeptics or realists?!) who believe there is no real evidence to link N Korea with the Sony hack.

Update 20-Dec-14:
Some learnings for all corporates.

Update 17-Dec-14:
Troubles have started pouring in. Employees are filing a class-action law suit against Sony. And we have movie theaters cancelling the shows for the infamous 'interview' movie.

Update 13-Dec-14:
This is getting out of hand. Sony's digital certs have also been compromised, and are being used to sign malware, as legitimate 'sony software'

Update 03-Dec-14:
Employee salary data, healthcare data, and lots more was also leaked!

Update 01-Dec-14
This is really bad: the hackers leaked 5 unreleased movies to torrents. Which effectively means it is now impossible for Sony to contain the leak, since the movies will keep getting circulated over and over again via the P2P network. This will for sure mean some monetary loss for the movies.
Also in the news, is that Sony has hired FireEye's Mandiant to help with the breach.


Update 26-Nov-14
The troubles of Sony, do not seem to go away. This time the Sony Pictures website has been compromised, and "secret and top secret" data was stolen!
