North Korean hacking groups have targeted defense contractors in South Korea, according to police reports. The attackers were identified through an analysis of source IP addresses, signal re-routing structures, and malware signatures. Authorities, in collaboration with national intelligence agencies and private sector experts, traced the hacks back to these groups.
The Hacking teams linked to North Korea’s intelligence apparatus and known as Lazarus, Kimsuky and Andariel planted malicious codes in data systems of the defence companies either directly or through contractors working with them, the police said.
