Ps3 developer MixeryM@xe has recently released a new POC plugin called PS3Lock (idea based off XMB Lock by ermak86) that offers password protection for your PS3. Originally the developer added this in a mod to webMAN MOD (LINK) but has since decided to add this into his own plugin. Basically you have 3 options to choose from and depending on what you choose is how locked down your PS3 Console will become. Its great to see more plugin development on the PS3, but stay tuned as we have a few more Plugin Stories we will be publishing very soon.
Note: At this time this plugin is for ONLY 4.46 CFW user's and is in German.
