Sony Corp. was subpoenaed by New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman over data breaches of its PlayStation Network and Sony Online unit, and representations made to customers, a person familiar with the probe said.
The subpoenas follow the company’s statement that it was attacked by computer hackers between April 16 and April 19. Tokyo-based Sony said May 2 that the attack on its PlayStation Network and Qriocity online music and film service in mid-April also gave hackers access to data from Sony Online Entertainment, a separate unit that makes role-playing games.
