Sony has forced the reset of a number (an undisclosed number) of PSN passwords as a precautionary measure after "irregular activity" was detected on the accounts.
An online support coordinator for Sony said that, "This was done purely as precautionary measure and there was no specific evidence that any accounts had be compromised."
The coordinator said only a small number of accounts have been affected, "and as I said this was precautionary so there is nothing specific to worry about.
"I cant provide any further details as this would affect out ability to keep you guys safe" s/he said.
So there you go, folks. Sony is out there protecting you, but it can't say why or what from.
Sony got into all kinds of bother back in June 2011 and had to take PlayStation Network offline after a security breach. The company was later fined £250,000 over the matter.
