Sony’s PlayStation Network was forced offline for much of Sunday by a cyber-attack in what appears to be a campaign against several online gaming services.
Microsoft’s XBox Live, Blizzard’s Battle.net, and Grinding Gear Games are among others to have reported being disrupted over the weekend.
The attacks coincided with a bomb scare involving a flight carrying a Sony executive.
An American Airlines jet was diverted after a threat was made online.
A warning that the flight – from Dallas-Fort Worth to San Diego – was carrying explosives was subsequently repeated by a Twitter account that had been used to claim responsibility for the online attacks.
John Smedley, president of Sony Online Entertainment, had been tweeting about his firm’s efforts to combat a “large scale DDoS” before posting a message saying he was about to board the plane.
DDoS stands for distributed denial of service attack – a technique in which many computers are used to flood an online service with requests in an attempt to overload its systems.
