🚨🇯🇵 JAPANESE INTERNET GIANT WARNS THE INTERNET IS ON THE VERGE OF COLLAPSE AS AI-POWERED CYBERATTACKS ESCALATE
GMO Internet has confirmed that hackers breached its Onamae Desktop Cloud service, stole customer information, and potentially compromised trading accounts.
Some customers have reported unauthorized financial transactions, while attackers are threatening further attacks involving accounts at more than 70 securities and FX firms.
The company is now seeking government intervention and promising compensation for verified trading losses.
Separately, GMO’s cybersecurity division identified the misuse of ARTEX, an autonomous AI penetration-testing tool, in attacks targeting approximately 20 Japanese companies.
GMO warns that AI has dramatically lowered the cost of cyberattacks, allowing attackers to discover vulnerabilities and launch intrusions with minimal human involvement.
The company describes the emerging threat as “AI cyber saturation attacks,” where automated attacks overwhelm defenders’ ability to respond.
