It seems like an eternity ago that every story on this site was about PlayStation Network, but the world has calmed since, and fears over mass fraud never seemed to surface.

Reuters is reporting that Sony's next step is to beef up internal oversight, and has picked up Philip Reitinger, former director of the US National Cyber Security Center at Homeland Security.

Sony recently announced more than three million users have registered PSN accounts since the attack, which started in April. More than 100 million accounts were affected, and by affected, I mean had their passwords exposed. The whole thing also affected Sony's bottom line; Sony reportedly lost more than $170 million during the ordeal.
