Now that PSN seems to be back on its feet, time for the hackers to get back to work. Lulz Security – the hacker group that has claimed responsibility for the cyber security breaches at Sony, Fox  News, and a private sector affiliate of the FBI – has claimed responsibility for targeting Nintendo of America in a similar attack (ABC News via EpicBattleAxe). The server was “accessed unlawfully a few weeks ago, but there was no damage,” according to a company spokesman, but no customer data was stolen. True to form, a tweet from the hacker group insisted the attack was just For The Lulz, clarifying that “We are not targeting Nintendo. We like the N64 (gaming console) too much – we sincerely hope Nintendo plugs the gap.”

Certainly, Lulz are pretty high on themselves right now and their N64 comment is cutesy-poo snark, but if the these institutions, particularly the ones holding sensitive data for the public, take a lesson from these attacks and learn how to beef up their security, then maybe these clowns are doing the world a favor.
