Cyberattacks from North Korea: G7 prepares response to billion-dollar cryptocurrency thefts

Leaders of the G7 countries are gathering in Canada, and among the usual topics - such as the military situation in Ukraine and the Gaza Strip - something less current but no less important emerges: hacker attacks from North Korea. Pyongyang seems to have finally turned cyberspace into its gold mine - and has been doing so for many years. Now, at the summit in Alberta, the key figures of the world order are preparing to discuss how to cut off the oxygen for North Korean hackers.

On the agenda - strengthening international cyber barriers, freezing digital assets linked to North Korea, and offensive measures against cryptocurrency exchanges through which money is laundered. Moreover, this is not just wishful thinking - a coordinated response and stricter rules of the game are planned for those who allow themselves to operate in proximity to the regime.
