sony made the decision to take itself off the grid. connections to the internet, all connections to the rest of sony, and all connections to third parties were shut off, effectively disconnecting an international corporation from the outside world, and plunging itself into a pre-digital age of landline telephones and hand- delivered messages written with pen and paper. >> mandia: immediately, employees start to remember the things they took for granted-- does the gate let you in the garage? you can't get your e-mail. people's benefits can't be processed appropriately, time cards can't be done. what if payroll's the next day? there are so many things that depend on the internet that, quite frankly, most companies don't even know all of them. so they come off the internet and go, "oh, wow, didn't see that coming." >> kroft: to kevin mandia, it looked like a military-style operation mounted by a foreign government. and when his company began comparing the sony computer virus with the 500 million pieces of malware in its archives, it quick

what happened with sony?nk back to the year 2000, sony had everything to create the ultimate digital walkman. it had music, content, hardware, software. mark: and name recognition. gillian: yet it blew it. the reason is come around the year 2000, it did produce an internet walkman, a digital walkman. it did not produce one. a produced two and eventually three competing products that cannibalized each other. it was because it had different divisions inside sony competing with each other that did not collaborate and could not be flexible and innovative. steve jobs was brilliant at jumping across silos and integrated the company and made one incredible product, the ipod. mark: in your book, you ask interesting questions. what did you find and as every organization have silos? julian: here's the issue. why do so many bright people i know do such a dumb things over and over again? theou look at the story of financial crisis, you see a problem of silos inside banks and regulators. if you look at a story like genera
