Sony executive calls hacking a “great experience”

Sony executive Tim Schaaf said at the MobileBeat conference in San Francisco the recent hacking event that crippled the company’s online networks was a “great experience” and allowed him to learn a lot.

But he confirmed that “I’d not like to do it again” according to All Things Digital.

“It’s a pretty crazy event that we went through but we are back strong,” he said.

Schaaf said the company has seen all of its customers return after the hacking scandal, which saw the PlayStation network down for several weeks.

Sony offered customers some compensation after the event, allowing them to download free games through the PlayStation Network.
