Sony hack was an inside job

Multiple police, FBI, cyber analyst sources are confirming that the focus of the FBI’s investigation has moved from North Korea to Los Angeles.

A LAPD officer and FBI agent confirmed that the Bureau is no longer looking at a North Korean angle for the Sony leak but have moved to an insider group working with outsider help.

One of the leakers has a direct connection to a Canada-based hacker who affiliated with the hacker group, LulzSec, say our sources.

Gotnews.com was the first to report on an insider connection here.
