🇰🇵 NORTH KOREAN HACKERS ATTACK FROM FAKE COMPANIES IN THE U.S.
Two companies, Blocknovas and Softglide, were created using fictitious identities and addresses. The operation is linked to a subgroup of the Lazarus Group.
This hacking unit, backed by the North Korean regime, has stolen billions of dollars in cryptocurrencies in recent years, employing sophisticated techniques targeted at unsuspecting individuals and companies.
The hackers' strategy is as manipulative as it is effective: they use fake profiles on platforms like LinkedIn and post job offers to attract cryptocurrency developers to interviews. During the selection process, they trick them into downloading malware disguised as tools to apply for jobs.
