HBO Hack Is Reportedly 7 Times Larger Than Catastrophic Sony Attack

You would think these billion dollar companies would have top notch systems

The situation is serious enough that the FBI has reportedly been brought into the fold, as has a cybersecurity firm that helped with the devastating 2014 hack of the film studio Sony Pictures.

By comparison, the Sony hack looks almost quaint compared to what HBO is potentially up against. As Siegel notes, hackers may have stolen as much as 1.5 terabytes of HBO?s data, or more than seven times as much as the 200 gigabytes (or 0.2 terabytes) taken in the Sony hack, which led to the resignation of Sony Pictures co-chair Amy Pascal.

The true effects of the HBO hack remain to be seen, as the television network and authorities try to figure out what has been stolen. But it appears the hackers got more than a few unaired episodes. An HBO-hired security company has already asked Google to scrub its search engine of links to the leaks, which the company told Google included ?thousands of Home Box Office (HBO) internal company documents? and ?masses of copyrighted items including documents, images, videos and sound,? according to a Variety report published Wednesday.

The real question is whether hackers have obtained emails and financial data, which led to a lot of Sony?s dirty laundry getting aired out online.
