lol, what did you expect?

I worked at Microsoft when the Playstation got hacked. They were like, "let's not say anything and attract attention from the hackers."

Thats kind of sinister.
Is it "sinister" to not want to also get hacked? Hackers love a challenge, the worst thing you could do in response to a competitor getting hacked is suggest you aren't as vulnerable. It's basically an invitation.
That's exactly the same logic my director applied to pentesting. If you don't test no vulnerabilities will be discovered.
