Last week, security was breached at servers belonging to Sega and Bio Ware, and no hacker has claimed responsibility for the same so far.
Tr`ue to the phrase: "It takes a thief to catch a thief", the hacker group LulzSec, which has recently been in the limelight for hacking several high profile websites, has offered a helping hand to Sega for nabbing the hackers.
It has been reported that hackers took sensitive information on about 1.3 million customers from Sega's servers. This includes customer names, dates of birth, e-mail addresses, and encrypted passwords. LulzSec has Tweeted, "We want to help you destroy the hackers that attacked you. We love the Dreamcast, these people are going down".

We must mention here that this group has been responsible for the recent attacks against Eve Online, MineCraft, and Bethesda Softworks, and therefore it seems ironical that it is actually offering help against those responsible for activities similar to its own.
Meanwhile, Bio Ware lost user names, passwords and other personal information of more than 18,000 Neverwinter Nights users from its more than decade-old community server system.
In this case, no one has claimed responsibility for this attack, and nobody has offered any help to track the attackers either.
