All of Sony only contains 6000 files? I always thought they were a giant multinational, who knew Sony was just two guys running the operation out of their apartment?
All the user data is stored in a single json blob
Lmao could you even imagine? Gigabytes of json 💀
Imagine parsing that 💀
No need to imagine. A lot of dump (map data, user data, etc) can reach the gigabytes and terabytes and are done in JSON. Good tools will stream the data and filter it anyway (like jq). You don’t need the whole file in memory.
They run jq queries in shell to get user data
I'd bet that they use cloud based file shares and these hackers have not actually breached all of their systems. Either that or they're saying only 6000 files contain interesting data that would be worth leaking.
shhh, don't spoil the myth now!
