The protection offered to those whose PlayStation Network accounts have been hacked has been called into question following the plight of one PS4 owner.
GameSpot reports that that a Reddit user named Kadjer saw his PSN account hijacked and $600 worth of content purchased through his account. Furthermore, his PS4 had been unlinked from his PSN account and replaced with another.
Sony, however, has told him that it has a maximum refund threshold of just $150, and that’s only offered in PSN credit, not actual cash.
To make matters worse, Kadjer is locked out of his PSN account, meaning he wouldn’t be able to access the funds regardless. To top it off, if he challenges the illicit purchases with his bank, Sony has said it will ban his PSN account and wipe his licenses, meaning purchases such as The Last of Us Remastered will be lost forever.
“As the transactions came in, one-by-one, it became immediately clear that my account had been hacked. I immediately logged into PSN and removed my card from the account, changed my email and password, and simultaneously launched support chats with both Sony and my bank,” his Reddit post explains.
“My account will not be able to activate a new system for six months, per Sony policy. I'm completely locked out of my own account until that date. I then asked about what would happen if I got my bank to reverse the charges, and he informed me that it would result in a banned account. I asked if there would be any way to restore my purchases, and he told me that there would not be.
“Absolutely furious. Change your passwords, everyone. Better yet, don't have your credit card on file with Sony - if something were to happen, you won't be taken care of.”
The Reddit post also carries the transcript of a particularly brutal exchange with Sony’s chat service.

If you're the sort of player who likes to clear one game at a time, dropping back in over the course of many evenings, PlayStation 4's next big system update is worth celebrating. Sony has confirmed that software update 2.50 will enable the console's long-awaited Suspend/Resume feature, among a bunch of other handy tweaks and additions.
It's been a little more than two years since the feature was trumpeted alongside PS4's grand reveal… so what does it do, again? It's pretty simple: instead of shutting down your games every time you put the system in rest mode, Sony says "nearly all PS4 titles" will now let you enter low-power mode while preserving your place in the game.
As long as your system doesn't lose power, you can come back an hour / day / week / month later and pick up right where you left off - no lengthy loading screens necessary (yes, I am giving you some serious side-eye right now, GTA 5). You should still save before you leave off for a while, though, since you never know when you'll have a system crash or power outage.
Suspend/Resume aside, update 2.50 will also improve a bunch of existing stuff. For one, you'll be able to Remote Play and Share Play at 60 frames per second, assuming you have the network conditions to support it. Trophies get automatic screenshots of your moments of triumph, and you can even improve your completion rate by removing games with 0 percent completion from your Trophy list.
The system will become more accessible with new options like text-to-speech and button reassignment, which is good news for players with disabilities and for folks who just can't stand clicking the sticks to press L3/R3. And soon you'll be able to upgrade PlayStation Network sub-account users who have outgrown their account restrictions straight from the system.
Your Share button will get a bit more potent with the option to upload straight to video sharing site Dailymotion, and lastly you'll be able to search for Facebook friends on PSN using a linked account.
Pretty nice update, there. That release date of "soon" can't come soon enough.

Over the past few years, Sony's PlayStation Network has proven itself to be totally resilient and definitely not susceptible to any sort of major hack. So of course, it's perfectly reasonable that they still don't have two-step verification.
For the past day or so, the web has been exploding over this Reddit post by user kadjar that talks about PSN customer service. In short: kadjar says his account was hacked and used to make some $600/£404 worth of fraudulent purchases, but when he took the issue to Sony, they said they could only give him back a maximum of$150/£101 in PSN credit. (That's the max any US users can hold in their PSN walletat one time.)
Normally, this wouldn't be a problem—it's credit card fraud, so he could just take it up with his credit card company—except if you try to file a chargeback on a PSN purchase, you'll probably get banned, as kadjar pointed out. Getting banned on PS4 means losing many of your game licenses—the ones you paid for—as well as trophies, friends lists, and everything else you use every day on your PlayStation.
Exacerbating this whole issue is the fact that PSN users can only deactivate their PlayStation accounts once every six months—so if a hacker gets access to your password, deactivates your PSN account from your PS4, and activates it on their own PlayStation, you'll have to wait a very long time to get it back.
Presumably Sony has these policies in place to prevent fraud—we've reached out to Sony for comment, but haven't heard back yet—and although we don't know if this Redditor was actually hacked, others have chimed in to air similar gripes. Ultimately, it seems like Sony doesn't have very effective ways to deal with people making fraudulent purchase claims.
But that's all beside the point. The bigger, more fundamental problem here is that the PlayStation Network doesn't have two-step verification—a security method that lets you use an e-mail address or phone as an extra form of protection from account theft—which in 2015 is just unacceptable. Xbox Live has it. Steam has it. Why is PSN so far behind?

One of President Kaz Hirai's big "Sony One" projects was PlayStation Mobile, which offered games that worked on both PS Vita and Android devices. That dream of cross-platform synergy is now dead, as Sony has announced it will stop publishing all PS Mobile content July 15th. On September 10th the entire site will cease to exist, and previously purchased games will no longer be available for download. The shutdown only applies to PS Vita content, as Sony had already stopped publishing Android games for PlayStation Mobile last year. Regular, non-Android PlayStation Vita games are still available at the PlayStation Store.

This week we are releasing the second remastered edition of one of our past releases. Every page has been re-examined and every one of the original PSD files has been run through the latest settings algorithm so that the colour values are much more representative of the physical magazine. This isn't easy to accomplish when dealing with digital representations of print. So if you're looking for more details on what all of this means, you can do so by clicking the following link.

In this article I’ll summarize the ongoing exploits, hacks, etc… that developers are working on for a potential PS4 Jailbreak. As always, if you’re looking for the latest status, I recommend to bookmark our CFW4Dummies page on PS4 Jailbreak.
First of all I’ll shortcut the people who’ll say the word “jailbreak” does not apply for anything else than an iPhone: rules of a language evolve as people use it, and it seems jailbreak is a popular term, if not among hackers, at least among users, to talk about things as various as PS4 hacks, exploits, custom firmwares, or piracy dongles.
Although we try to regularly shut down the rumors, it seems there exists a business in pretending the PS4 has been hacked. A few websites with low self esteem have made it their business to attract clicks by pretending a massive PS4 “jailbreak” or hack is being worked on (this includes a popular PS3 scene site that was recently sold by its original owners…). Sometimes they mention the name of an obscure hacker based on an obvious hoax, other times they re-heat the plate and add another popular name of the “hacking” subculture as seen by the medias, for example by pretending that Lizard Squad is behind an upcoming PS4 hack. (hint: they’re not)
So let me get this straight once again: the reckZ0r PS4 hack is a fake, the Lizard Squad PS4 hack too: the popular name “Lizard Squad” has just been slapped as a sticker to an old hoax in need of a new twist, to generate more click and bait.
So what are real hackers working on nowadays for the PS4 security?
The last time we mentioned PS4 hacks was based on a statement from YifanLu, that the PS4 would probably be easier to hack than the PS Vita. That dates back to several months ago already, so has anything evolved since then?
PS4 Vulnerabilities
First of all, the most well known vulnerability is the PS4 Webkit exploit that was disclosed in Firmware 1.76, and patched in the next PS4 firmware (which is actually the reason that exploit was disclosed in the first place). It is safe to assume a fair amount of hackers are still running a 1.76 PS4 today, looking into this. Even though the exploit has been patched, it’s become an entry point for any hacker remaining on 1.76, which could lead to additional discoveries of new vulnerabilities. These vulnerabilities could be leveraged on recent firmwares.
More than a year ago, SKFU mentioned a PS4 vulnerability in application Vidnow. I have seen little to no reaction on this. My gut feeling is that this wasn’t deemed important enough to work on.
More recently, old school psp hacker jeerum mentioned an IE buffer overflow exploit that seems to have an effect on the PS4’s browser. This actually seems to crash the PS4, even on recent system versions. This one could be a serious vulnerability, and might not have received the attention it deserves.
PS4 Hacks: work in progress
As always, most of the interesting work is done under the hood. IRC Channel #PS4Dev is probably where you’ll want to go if you think you can contribute. Of course, don’t expect hackers to share their secrets to you until you’ve shown that you’re actually bringing something to the table and that they can trust you.
Significant information is being added to the ps4 dev wiki on a regular basis. On that wiki you’ll find the information that hackers and devs are willing to share on the device. Things such as the PS4 Game Disc format, how the boot sequence works, etc…
There’s of course no magic here, the devs and hackers share what they want to share on that wiki, so do not expect to find a magical solution for your PS4 jailbreak. If anything big is happening, it is currently under wraps.
PS4 Jailbreak
So what’s the status of the PS4 jailbreak as of now? simply put, there is no PS4 jailbreak available, as of March 2015. But there is enough activity under the hood that we know things are making progress. As always, to check the latest and greatest status of PS4 Hacks, check our PS4 CFW for dummies page!
