Verhulst Family Dominates Flemish TV Screens with New Shows and Documentary

Japanese internet company GMO Internet will compensate customers for losses from unauthorized access to its forex trading platform following a cyberattack, and pay each client 5,000 yen as a goodwill gesture. The company's stock fell 11 percent Monday after a ransom demand threatened to leak corporate and customer data. GMO refused the extortion demand and is cooperating with police and other authorities, while also requesting Japanese government cyber defense measures. The company is among several Japanese firms hit by attacks, with parking operator Park24 also compensating customers 3,000 yen after a data leak. Experts say AI is making cybercrime faster, cheaper, and harder to detect by automating tasks from vulnerability scanning to phishing campaigns. Japan announced Friday it will create a team using AI to simulate attacks and expose system weaknesses, following widespread outages linked to critical PHP programming language vulnerabilities.
