A group of North Korean hackers is believed to be actively targeting US businesses and"critical infrastructure," a report released this week by cybersecurity firm McAfee said.
McAfee said it found that the North Korean hackers have tried to infiltrate nearly 80 business in critical sectors like finance, telecommunications, energy and defense around the world. Governments themselves were also targeted, McAfee said. The hacking is believed to have continued during US President Donald Trump's summit with Kim Jong Un. The largest number of recent attacks primarily target Germany, Turkey and the United Kingdom as well as the United States, McAfee said.
Bolton on North Korea: 'No deal is better than a bad deal' 03:54US officials said last week that Washington believes the North Korean government has stepped up cyberattacks targeting financial institutions in a desperate bid to acquire cash, as international sanctions levied against Pyongyang have squeezed its economy.
