The Sony Online Entertainment (SOE) site, a multiplayer online game service, said "SOE MAINTENANCE In Progress," followed by a message: "Dear Valued SOE Customers, We have had to take the SOE service down temporarily. In the course of our investigation into the intrusion into our systems we have discovered an issue that warrants enough concern for us to take the service down effective immediately. We will provide an update later today (Monday). We apologize for any inconvenience and greatly appreciate your patience."
The company said that during its investigation into the PlayStation Network breach it discovered that attackers may have also obtained Sony Online Entertainment customer names, addresses, email addresses, gender, birth dates, phone numbers, log-in names, and hashed passwords.
