GMO orders customer shutdown after Japan Internet leak notified Onamae Desktop Cloud users to disconnect computers from the Internet, force them, and non-sticky cables after an early breach affecting up to 26,739 servers deteriorated into a ransom threat. GMO says the stolen company and customer data were posted online, refused an $8 billion demand, and issued repeated updates on events through GMO. The case shows a rare step from containment to shutting down the customer's device, indicating the concern that malicious code planted during the initial intrusion could still run on host systems. According to the reports, payment data was not exposed, but MT4/MT5 data and trading-account data could have been compromised. 🛰️ Open sources - closed narratives.
