North Korea has denies hack on Sony and offers help to find the real perpetrators. For now, the movie is still on hold, a decision that was criticized by President Obama and others. However, Sony said yesterday that it hadn't been cowed and may still release the Seth Rogan/James Franco film.
As for the breach by the so-called Guardians of Peace, Sony is now trying to stem further leaks and repair damage to its reputation. It just posted a job listing for a "Director of Vulnerability Management" to help "secure Sony's information assets... and (protect) the privacy of Sony's customers and employees." So far, the massive trove of leaks has compromised the privacy of current and ex-Sony employees, spawned several lawsuits, and stressed Sony's relations with customers, distributors and talent. On the other hand, the real-life story of the attack could make a better film than the one that started it in the first place.
