The latest games publisher to fall pretty to hackers is Square Enix. The company behind the recent Deus Ex: Human Revolution has announced that hackers managed to gain access to their user database, but that no credit card information is stored on their servers.
This is the second time this year that the publisher has been hacked, after about 25,000 user accounts were compromised in May.
Square Enix released this official statement on the matter:
“We are assessing the full extent of this potential breach to determine what data, if any, was compromised and will provide more details as soon as possible. While some personal information may have been accessed, we can confirm that there is no possibility of any credit card information leak from this incident, since the server in question stores no credit card information. We estimate that the suspension will continue for a few days until we complete our investigation and counter-measures. We will update you as we learn more.”
Eish.
