UN sanctions monitors are probing numerous suspected cyberattacks attributed to North Korea, allegedly yielding $3 billion to bolster its nuclear weapons program, according to excerpts from an unpublished UN report.
The monitors are investigating 58 suspected cyber-attacks on cryptocurrency-related entities between 2017 and 2023, valued at around $3 billion, purportedly aiding DPRK’s weapons of mass destruction (WMD) development. These findings are part of the monitors’ semiannual report to the 15-member Security Council.
