>>The problem with the Golden Key suggestion here is that once your data is compromise it is game over forever. There's no do-overs as there is with DRM systems. For the game consoles there aren't really feasible do-overs either if the keys at ring 0(the earliest security event) are revealed. As in, the only path to recovery is to physically replace every game console out there. http://www.ps3hax.net/2012/10/marcan-fail0verflow-about-lv0/ http://www.ps3hax.net/2012/10/marcan-fail0verflow-about-lv0/ >>The effect of this is essentially the same that the metldr key release had: all existing and future firmwares can be decrypted, except Sony no longer has the lv0 trick up their sleeve. What this means is that there is no way for Sony to wrap future firmware to hide it from anyone, because old PS3s must be able to use all future firmware (assuming Sony doesn’t just decide to brick them all…), and those old PS3s now have no remaining seeds of security that aren’t known.
