(Reuters) - Hypo Alpe Adria won't make payments on supplementary and hybrid capital instruments for 2011 because it posted an annual loss under Austrian accounting rules, the nationalised lender said.

"As claims to the payment of interest warrants (coupons) related to the supplementary and hybrid capital instruments conditional to profits are depending on the UGB-based result of Hypo Alpe-Adria-Bank International AG, the bank has to inform that no payments for 2011 can be made," it said on Tuesday.

Under IFRS accounting standards it swung to a group profit of 69.3 million euros ($91 million) before minorities from a loss of 1.08 billion in 2010. The profit included a 126 million euro one-off fair-value gain on its own debt.

Under Austrian standards -- which do not allow such fair-value gains -- it lost 165 million euros in 2011, it said. ($1 = 0.7610 euro) (Reporting by Michael Shields)

The hacker group declared in April that it would wage a cyber war against Sony for trying to stop people from tinkering with the PlayStation 3. Three years earlier, the company faced three breaches in Europe, including one in which Sony said some PlayStation Network user data might have been stolen.
The repeated incidents should have warned Sony its online network was vulnerable, said Eugene Spafford, a computer science professor at Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. The failure to enact safeguards such as appointing a single chief of security may show Sony misunderstands the risks inherent in Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Howard Stringer’s networked strategy, he said.
“The evidence we’ve seen so far speaks to a lack of a good data management plan and a good security plan,” said Spafford, who specialises in information security, computer crime investigation and information ethics.
Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry said today it told Sony to carry out preventive measures against data breaches, instructed the company to ease customer concerns over misuse of credit cards and share more information among affiliates.
Sony has struggled to keep up with the barrage that started in mid-April. The Qriocity and PlayStat...
