How Do I Reset My Password on the Sony Network?

Sony, the Japanese conglomerate is one of the top companies in the world. The company's interests spread across consumer electronics, business electronics, gaming, finance and entertainment among other industries.

Due to the wide range of services offered by Sony, they often have different accounts for each service including PlayStation and Sony Mobile among many others. However, you can have a Sony account through which you can manage our accounts on all other Sony platforms. You can open a Sony account as long as you are using a Sony product.

The ability to manage all Sony related accounts from a single point can be both cumbersome and advantageous.
