The latest PSN update required a password change. They could have also added a required security question and then used that when resetting passwords.

- simias 15y agoIIRC there was already a security question when you first registered (at least, I made an entry for it in my keepass DB, so I must have been asked one somewhere). It was however not asked to reset the password, which makes me wonder what it was good for in the first place.
- Legion 15y agoExactly this. All previously stored data is compromised. Obviously, people can't change their birthdates, but the password reset function unquestionably has to rely only on newly-supplied, uncompromised data.
