Being a security guy, I agree that no amount of planning and intelligence will keep out a significantly determined attacker. However, this doesn't give you carte blanche to not think about security. All the evidence presented around this shows that they simply didn't make it difficult at all; as soon as the console fell, so did their system. They seem to have violated every rule in security. That is simply unacceptable.

It's one thing to be attacked by determined people and fail eventually -- given enough time, everyone does -- but it's a completely different matter to give the keys to the castle to anyone with a rooted PS3.
