How Sony should use their hacking as a script for a new … – ITespresso.es

It was not easy for Sony week, but the company should take something positive from its having been the victim of a massive hack that ended unreleased films scattered Internet, confidential information published wages and bonus, and many passwords to light. What we have before us is almost the perfect script for a film that should launch Sony Pictures in years: a history of hackers, information stolen and destroyed, and even the suspicion that North Korea may be behind all <. / strong>

In the opening scene, the cameras show us that at first glance look like a day in an office at Sony. Each worker with your computer before, perhaps discussing some detail of his personal life, when suddenly all screens are made the image of a red skeleton and a warning: “I Hacked by #GOP” , “Ya you have been warned and this is just the beginning. ” Film is so hard to believe that is what actually happened.

Nearly two weeks after the attack became known, hackers continue filtering data and information about who did it and why remains unclear. For a few days all eyes turned to North Korea The reason is the film The Interview, Sony Pictures released on Christmas and follows two journalists who enter the country with a hidden mission.: kill Kim Jong-un.

Of course, when the summer was learned that movie was filmed and what was their argument, North Korea has not remained silent.

In another interview, one of the hackers said they are “a international organization that includes famous figures in the world of politics and society of various nations, like the US, UK and France. We are not directed any state. “

And the film The Interview? Although GOP not it funny (a comedy) and described as “dangerous”, simply because they might believe that has caused a diplomatic row with North Korea, also indicate that is not the reason for the attack. The reason, they say, should already know it at Sony. That “I advised and this is just the beginning” points to previous contacts and a list of demands. The day slowly unravels more episodes
