Storm Watch | Cyber News | own Cloud, Infected Slurs Botnet, Fidelity Ransomware, and Microsoft Bug Bounty

Summary: GreyNoise's Storm Watch episode covers a US- and UK-backed agreement to make AI 'secure by design', the seizure of nearly $9M in cryptocurrency from a cyber scam organization, and a critical ownCloud vulnerability that reveals admin passwords and was quickly exploited in the wild. It also covers the InfectedSlurs botnet spreading Mirai via zero-days, a ransomware 'catastrophe' at Fidelity National Financial, AutoZone's warning about a MOVEit data breach, and Microsoft's bug bounty program awarding more than $60M over ten years.

Bottom line: The ownCloud bug exposed admin passwords and was exploited in the wild almost immediately, and the InfectedSlurs botnet is spreading Mirai through zero-days - two reminders that the window between disclosure and exploitation is measured in hours, not weeks.
