Japan's GMO Internet Group Offers $1 Million Bounty Following Cloud Service Breach

Japan's GMO Internet Group is offering a $1 million reward for information leading to the arrest of hackers who breached its Onamae.com Desktop Cloud service. The attackers stole customer data, demanded a $50 million ransom, and were linked to unauthorized FX trades. GMO refused the ransom, and while some stolen material was posted online, the site has since been taken down. This incident highlights significant cybersecurity threats to cloud services.
