CrowdStrike's 2025 Threat Hunting Report reveals that North Korean operatives have infiltrated over 320 companies across the US, Europe, and other regions by securing remote IT jobs. These operatives use generative AI tools and fake job offers to gain access to corporate networks, including cloud systems, with the intent of stealing billions in cryptocurrency and funding North Korea's weapons programs. This covert operation involves creating false profiles on platforms like LinkedIn, enabling the regime of Kim Jong Un to finance its activities. Major news outlets including CNN, BBC, and The Wall Street Journal have recently highlighted this ongoing cyber threat, emphasizing the challenges posed by remote work arrangements in the tech sector. Cybersecurity experts and agencies such as CISA have been involved in addressing these infiltration attempts, underscoring the need for heightened vigilance among companies employing remote workers.
