Sony Pictures Entertainment

Sony Pictures Entertainment experienced a massive computer breach that exposed the personal information of thousands of current and former employees.

The group, calling itself Guardians of Peace, released data including thousands of pages of emails from studio chiefs, salaries of top executives, and Social Security numbers of 47,000 current and former employees.

Sony offered employees identity protection services through a third-party provider for a year.
