An in-depth look at North Korea's extensive and expanding hacking operations, almost always focused on generating revenue for the closed-off country

    This is a fascinating look at North Korea's use of cyber operations for espionage, disruption, and financial gain. Also brings up an interesting question of if/how states can/should respond to attacks on private companies. https://www.newyorker.com/...

    North Korea has produced some of the world's most proficient hackers, who have conducted operations in more than 150 countries and stolen billions of dollars. Can they be stopped? https://nyer.cm/MuNQ0LD
