There is no such thing as a 100% secure network if a state sponsored group has decided you're the target.
Yea I get that, but they were a long way from being 100 percent and they had recently outsourced their entire IT department. Sony was very much in a transition and it appears that the hack did not really require a lot of work.

"...Leaked documents show that Sony employees kept lists of passwords in spreadsheets on their computers. Also, employees kept the Social Security numbers of 47,426 people -- including Conan O'Brien and Sylvester Stallone -- lying around in unencrypted files.."

This was not PWC showing they knew their stuff, there were real gaps.
