http://www.cbc.ca/news/technology/story/2011/07/22/sony-playstation-cyberattack-claims.html Insurers for Sony are going to court in a bid to avoid paying compensation related to a cyberattack and massive data breach affecting the PlayStation Network, Sony Online Entertainment and Sony Pictures network... Since then, Canadian customers have launched three class action lawsuits against Sony and U.S. customers have launched 55, said a court document filed by the New York law firm Coughlin Duffy LLB on behalf of Zurich American Insurance Company and Zurich Insurance Company Ltd. this week in the Supreme Court of the State of New York. ... The Zurich companies are asking for a declaration that they are not obligated to defend Sony or compensate it for claims made in the lawsuits or future court actions that could be brought forward by the attorney general of a U.S. State. They say only a few Sony subsidiaries qualify for insurance under some of its plans, and that the claims in the lawsuits are not for any of the things covered by the insurance plans. _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
