Sony's DRM is pure ADEPT with no support for the B&N ereader drm.
Activation and device registration is though Adobe ADE or Sony's app.
(Neither of which has the best reputation.)

There are entire threads devoted to *some* people's misadventures and horror stories with ADE:

Most people get along just fine in the Adept ecosystem, though.
Others prefer to websearch for Apprentice Alf and learn how to do without DRM altogether.
Others just buy DRM-free ebooks.
And others are perfectly happy in the Apple or Amazon or B&N walled gardens.
There is no single answer.

Different strokes for different folks.
