The U.S. Treasury has imposed sanctions on two individuals and four organizations linked to a network of North Korean IT specialists. According to the agency, they infiltrated crypto companies, stole personal data of U.S. citizens to create fake accounts, and disguised as remote employees to get jobs at Western firms. Their assets have been frozen.
According to TRM Labs, North Korea has changed its tactics: instead of large-scale hacks, local hackers are increasingly using the strategy of embedding their employees to generate income to fund the country's missile program.
